Throughout pregnancy, a woman's body undergoes various changes and is therefore not exempt from complications. For this reason, medical check-ups during pregnancy are essential to be able to identify any risks to the fetus as the pregnancy progresses. However, it is not always possible to avoid gestational complications.
Some complicated pregnancy-related situations include:
- Preeclampsia or high blood pressure.
- Placenta previa.
- Amniotic fluid abnormalities.
- Premature delivery.
Complications may also occur in the baby during pregnancy, such as malformations, intrauterine fetal death or low birth weight, among others.
