What is a high-risk pregnancy?
A high-risk pregnancy is any pregnancy where the health of the mother, the baby, or both may face greater-than-usual challenges. Some factors are beyond your control, while others can be managed with proper care.
Common conditions that may classify a pregnancy as high-risk include:
- Maternal age over 35
- Pre-existing medical conditions such as diabetes or hypertension
- History of miscarriages or pregnancy complications
- Carrying multiples (twins, triplets, etc.)
- Lifestyle factors like smoking or drug use
- HIV/AIDS or other chronic conditions
- Obesity
- Prior surgeries affecting reproductive health
How is high-risk pregnancy care different?

- Amniocentesis to evaluate amniotic fluid
- Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) to check for genetic conditions
- Cordocentesis to analyze fetal blood
- Routine lab tests and medication management
If you have a pre-existing health condition, Dr. Ahdoot coordinates with your other healthcare providers to keep your condition stable while ensuring the safety of your baby.
