Pregnancy Complications

Meaning

Pregnancy Complications are adverse health outcomes that occur during gestation, labor, or the postpartum period, posing a risk to the health of the mother, the fetus, or both. In reproductive endocrinology, a significant number of these complications are directly linked to underlying or pregnancy-induced hormonal and metabolic dysregulation. Conditions such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and recurrent pregnancy loss underscore the critical role of endocrine balance in a successful pregnancy.
