Ectopic means ‘outside the uterus’. It the one of the most worrisome and grave complications in pregnancy when the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus, most common site being the fallopian tube. The other sites of ectopic pregnancy could be ovary, cervix, abdominal cavity, etc.
The mother invariably ends up losing the pregnancy and in many cases may require an emergency surgery for the removal of ruptured fallopian tube. The early antenatal care, early ultrasounds to detect the ectopic pregnancy can avert this complication.
High blood pressure and protein in the urine that afflicts up to 8 percent of pregnant women. It can cause blood clotting and impaired kidney and liver function. One study suggests preeclampsia may be caused by a protein that halts the growth of blood vessels in the placenta, while another study suggests the odds for it increase with a woman's prepregnancy body-mass index. If symptoms are mild, most physicians suggest bed rest. Vitamins E and C may also help. Delivery usually ends the condition.
High blood-sugar levels, occurring in about 4 percent of pregnant women, which puts the baby at risk of being too big. Your pancreas is unable to produce enough insulin to counteract pregnancy hormones that increase blood-sugar levels. Most cases can be controlled with a high-fiber diet that's low in sugars, though some women need insulin injections or the drug glyburide. Gestational diabetes usually disappears after delivery, but about half of women with gestational diabetes develop type 2 diabetes later in life.
