About the disease & condition

Pregnancy-related renal diseases are kidney conditions that develop during pregnancy or are worsened by pregnancy. These include preeclampsia, acute kidney injury, urinary tract infections, and worsening of pre-existing kidney disease. Hormonal changes, increased blood volume, and blood pressure fluctuations can place extra stress on the kidneys. Early detection through regular antenatal checkups is essential. Prompt treatment helps protect both maternal and fetal health and reduces the risk of long-term kidney complications after delivery.
