However, this pregnancy trip has its benefits and risks.

Some women face these complications early on and others throughout their journey. Those who are not aware of common pregnancy complications, please read carefully to know about them and take the appropriate measures to avoid them.

Arterial hypertension

High blood pressure occurs as a result of the narrowing of the arteries (responsible for the transport of blood from the heart to the organs) and the placenta. During pregnancy, high blood pressure causes several complications, such as preterm labor and pre-eclampsia. It is imperative to monitor your blood pressure to avoid complications during pregnancy.

Premature delivery

When you have labor pain before your due date and give birth, it is called preterm labor. Preterm labor pain occurs before 37 weeks of pregnancy and occurs when your baby's organs develop earlier than usual. Therefore, gynecologists generally recommend having more bed rest to prevent early development of the baby.

Infection

Another quite common complication in pregnant women that can be confused with pregnancy are bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases. Illnesses can be dangerous for both mother and child, so immediate treatment is essential.

The most common infections include:

• Urinary infection
• Bacterial vaginosis
• Cytomegalovirus
• Group B streptococcus
• The hepatitis B virus can be passed to your baby during delivery.
• Influenza
• Toxoplasmosis (a disease caused by a parasite found in raw meat, soil, and cat feces)
• Zika virus

Getting regular and early medical care during pregnancy is highly imperative to reduce risks during pregnancy. Dedicated parental care makes it possible to diagnose, manage and treat all health problems at an early stage and thus alleviate all major complications.
