Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) refers to a condition where a fetus does not grow to its expected size during pregnancy. This can occur due to various factors, including maternal health issues, placental problems, or genetic conditions. IUGR can lead to low birth weight and may increase the risk of complications for the baby, both during and after birth. Diagnosis of IUGR typically involves ultrasound examinations to monitor fetal growth and amniotic fluid levels. Management may include closer monitoring, early delivery, or interventions to improve maternal health. Early detection is crucial to ensure the best possible outcomes for both the mother and the baby.
