High-Risk Pregnancy Conditions
High-risk pregnancies can be caused by a wide range of conditions, from common health issues like diabetes and high blood pressure, to life-threatening complications that develop during pregnancy, like placenta accreta. The more conditions a woman has, the more complex and higher-risk her pregnancy. And the greater the need for specialized care.
