High Risk Pregnancy
A high-risk pregnancy refers to a pregnancy in which there is an increased likelihood of complications that could affect the health of the mother, the fetus, or both. Factors contributing to a high-risk pregnancy may include advanced maternal age, pre-existing medical conditions, multiple pregnancies (e.g., twins), or a history of pregnancy complications. High-risk pregnancies necessitate more frequent and specialized prenatal care, close monitoring, and timely intervention to manage potential issues. Healthcare providers work closely with expectant mothers to reduce risks, provide appropriate medical support, and optimize the chances of a healthy pregnancy and childbirth.
