Hypertension in Pregnancy treatment in Jayanagar

What is Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension?

PIH usually develops after 20 weeks of pregnancy and is characterized by elevated blood pressure without prior history of hypertension. If left unmanaged, it can progress to preeclampsia, a more serious condition that affects both the mother and baby.

• May present with symptoms like headaches, swelling in hands/feet, or visual disturbances.

• Can increase risks of placental complications and reduced blood supply to the baby.

• If severe, may lead to early delivery for maternal and fetal safety.

• Risk factors include first pregnancy, multiple pregnancies, obesity, and family history of hypertension.

Early recognition and monitoring are essential in preventing complications associated with PIH.
