Patient's question:
I am 34 years old and have a history of high-risk pregnancy. I finally got pregnant, and I am very happy. However, during my pregnancy, I found that my blood pressure is high, and I feel very sad. I hope my child can be healthy. The doctor suggested I be hospitalized.Do you need to be hospitalized if you have high blood pressure during pregnancy?
Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy, high blood pressure reappeared, which indicates preeclampsia. In this case, it is advisable to be hospitalized during the late stages of pregnancy for safety. This is because during the late stages, leg and foot swelling may occur again, making walking difficult and potentially affecting the fetus. For safety, it is best to be hospitalized for close monitoring.
