A high-risk pregnancy is a pregnancy in which the woman has an increased risk of presenting complications during gestation, and therefore requires greater control by specialists during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Thus, an attempt will be made to prevent the appearance of these complications, to keep them under control, or to detect them early, in order to avoid problems for the woman or the baby.
