Fetal Complications
Fetal complications refer to issues that can arise during pregnancy, affecting the developing baby. These complications can include conditions such as fetal distress, where the baby may not be getting enough oxygen, or congenital anomalies, which are physical or structural problems present at birth. Other complications may involve issues with the placenta, such as placental abruption, where the placenta detaches from the uterus prematurely.
Monitoring and early detection are crucial for managing fetal complications. Regular prenatal check-ups help healthcare providers identify potential risks, allowing for timely interventions. Treatments may vary based on the specific complication and can include medication, specialized care, or, in some cases, early delivery to ensure the safety of both the mother and the baby.
