Tensiunea crescută în sarcină și riscurile pentru mamă și copil

High blood pressure during pregnancy requires special attention, even without symptoms. Conditions can arise before or after mid-pregnancy, leading to serious complications. Dr. Ioana Zechiu explains the importance of monitoring hypertension in pregnancy, including preeclampsia, which typically occurs after 20 weeks and can affect organ function and fetal development. Symptoms may be subtle, but persistent headaches and vision changes are warning signs. Different types of hypertension require tailored management, and regular prenatal checks are crucial for ensuring maternal and fetal health. Proper control can significantly reduce risks such as premature birth and severe maternal complications.
