High-Risk Pregnancy
High Risk Pregnancy
A high-risk pregnancy is one in which the mother, the baby, or both are at increased risk of health complications. This can be due to a variety of factors that require specialized care and close monitoring throughout the pregnancy. At Mayom Hospital, we provide comprehensive care for high-risk pregnancies under the expert guidance of Dr. Arti Gupta, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both mother and baby.
Conditions That Can Cause High-Risk Pregnancy
Several conditions can contribute to a pregnancy being classified as high-risk. These include:
Pre-existing Health Conditions
- Diabetes: Women with pre-existing or gestational diabetes need careful monitoring and management.
- Hypertension: High blood pressure can affect both the mother and the baby.
- Heart Disease: Pre-existing heart conditions require specialized care during pregnancy.
- Kidney Disease: Women with renal issues need close monitoring to manage their health and the baby’s development.
Pregnancy-Related Complications
- Pre-eclampsia: A condition characterized by high blood pressure and signs of damage to other organ systems.
- Multiple Pregnancies: The likelihood of problems increases while carrying twins, triplets, or more.
- Placental Problems: Issues such as placenta previa or placental abruption can pose significant risks.
- Gestational Diabetes: Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy, affecting blood sugar levels and requiring careful management for a healthy pregnancy.
Lifestyle Factors
- Advanced Maternal Age: Women over the age of 35 are at higher risk of complications.

- Substance Use: Smoking, alcohol, and drug use can adversely affect pregnancy outcomes.
