Complications

  • Pre-eclampsia: a severe form of GH, characterised by hypertension, proteinuria and end-organ damage
  • Placental abruption: the placenta separates from the uterine wall, causing heavy bleeding and foetal distress
  • Intrauterine growth restriction: leads to low birth weight and other complications
  • Pre-term delivery: may be necessary if GH is severe or if there are other complications
