High-risk pregnancy

A pregnancy may be called high risk because of blood pressure, diabetes, previous complications, twins, or a problem found on scan. The label means closer monitoring. It does not by itself decide the type of birth.

General information for patients at Sachi Hospital, Maninagar, Ahmedabad. It is not a diagnosis or a promise of a particular result. Reviewed by the Sachi Hospital medical team · September 2026.

Why people come in

  • Blood pressure or sugar problems in pregnancy
  • A previous complicated birth
  • A scan finding that needs follow-up

Possible causes

Risk comes from the mother's health, the pregnancy, or the baby. The specific reason is what the plan is built on.

How this is assessed

Visits and scans are scheduled more closely. Dr. Kinjal Thakkar and Dr. Rajendra Thakkar share this work.

Treatment options

  • Closer antenatal review
  • Scan surveillance
  • A delivery plan made in advance
  • 24-hour care if labour or a complication starts

Diagnosis and treatment depend on an individual consultation. A page cannot decide that you need a procedure.

When to seek urgent care

  • Heavy vaginal bleeding
  • Severe abdominal pain, or a severe headache with visual change
  • Clearly reduced baby movements
  • Waters breaking before you have a plan with your doctor

What to expect at the visit

Ask which symptoms should bring you in the same day rather than at the next visit.
