Pregnancy-related Disorders

Pregnancy can be complicated by underlying medical conditions or these can develop for the first time during pregnancy. One of the common problems is hypertension or high blood pressure which can be associated with protein loss in urine and renal dysfunction. This can have adverse effects on the mother and the fetus including long-term risk of kidney disease. 

The Department of Nephrology in collaboration with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology provides comprehensive management of these challenging conditions in pregnancy ensuring the best outcome for the mother and child.
