High Risk Pregnancy

High Risk Pregnancy Care
Dr. Ahdoot provides specialized care for women experiencing high-risk pregnancies at his Burbank and Palmdale, CA locations. Through advanced prenatal testing, increased monitoring, and tailored treatment plans, he works to protect the health of both mother and baby from the earliest stages of pregnancy through delivery.

What Is a High-Risk Pregnancy?
A pregnancy is considered high risk when certain factors increase the likelihood of complications before, during, or after birth. These factors can include maternal age (under 17 or over 35), pre-existing conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, multiple gestations, or pregnancy-related issues such as preeclampsia or placenta previa.

How Is It Managed?
Women with high-risk pregnancies benefit from more frequent prenatal visits, specialized imaging such as targeted ultrasounds, and additional tests to monitor the baby’s growth and well-being. Dr. Ahdoot develops a personalized care plan, coordinates with specialists as needed, and ensures delivery occurs in a setting equipped to handle high-risk situations.

Why Specialized Care Matters
Early identification and close management of risk factors significantly improve outcomes for both mother and child. With the right support, most women with high-risk pregnancies can expect safe, healthy deliveries.
