What is pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH)?

Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), also called gestational hypertension, is high blood pressure that develops after 20 weeks of pregnancy in women who previously had normal blood pressure. It requires regular monitoring because it may increase the risk of complications if left untreated.

What are the symptoms of pregnancy-induced hypertension?

Some women with PIH may not notice any symptoms, which is why routine prenatal check-ups are important. Others may experience headaches, blurred vision, swelling of the face or hands, upper abdominal pain, or sudden weight gain. If you develop any of these symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.

Can pregnancy-induced hypertension be treated?

Yes. Treatment depends on how high your blood pressure is, your stage of pregnancy, and your baby's health. Your obstetrician may recommend regular monitoring, lifestyle modifications, medications when appropriate, and planning the safest time and mode of delivery.
