High Risk Pregnancy Care
Specialized Care for Complex & High-Risk Pregnancies
High-Risk Pregnancy refers to a pregnancy where the mother or baby has increased chances of health complications due to factors like high blood pressure, diabetes, advanced maternal age, multiple pregnancy, or previous pregnancy issues. It requires specialized monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and expert medical care to ensure a safe pregnancy and healthy delivery.
A high risk pregnancy refers to a pregnancy where the health of the mother, the baby, or both may be at increased risk of complications compared to a typical pregnancy. This can arise due to pre-existing medical conditions, pregnancy-related factors, age-related risks, or complications that develop during gestation.
At Dr. Richa Khandelwal’s Clinic, we provide expert, compassionate care to ensure the best possible outcomes for both mother and baby.
What Causes a Pregnancy to Be High Risk?
Several factors can elevate pregnancy risk, including:
- Pre-existing health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart or thyroid disease.
- Pregnancy complications like preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, or abnormal placental growth.
- Maternal age factors — pregnancies in women under 20 or over 35 carry greater risk.
- Multiple pregnancies (twins or more).
- Lifestyle and genetic factors that may influence fetal development or maternal health.
