Hypertension in Pregnancy: A Bumpy Ride for the Two Nascent Lives

Abstract

A huge proportion of pregnancies are convoluted by medical disorders. With greater advances in pediatric care and artificial
fertility, the numbers of women who attempt a pregnancy bracketed by serious complications have exponentially increased.
High BP during pregnancy has been found to be associated with deterioration of maternal and fetal well-being. Pregnancy
associated with hypertension is linked with numerous life-threatening complications. This article provides an overview
of already existing as well as fresh onset of hypertension during pregnancy and the role of magnesium in pre-eclampsia.
