High-Risk Pregnancy Care

Expert Support When Pregnancy Needs Extra Attention

Some pregnancies require closer monitoring and specialised care due to underlying health conditions, pregnancy-related complications, or previous experiences. Dr. Affie Tourani offers highly personalised, evidence-based care for women with high-risk pregnancies — balancing medical expertise with genuine compassion and support. Your safety and your baby’s wellbeing are always her top priorities. 

What Is a High-Risk Pregnancy?

A pregnancy may be classified as high-risk if there’s a greater chance of complications for the mother, baby, or both. This can be due to:

Maternal Health Conditions:

  • Diabetes (pre-existing or gestational)

  • High blood pressure / preeclampsia

  • Thyroid disorders

  • Autoimmune diseases

  • Blood clotting disorders

Pregnancy-Related Factors:

  • Advanced maternal age (35+)

  • Multiple pregnancy (twins or more)

  • Previous miscarriage, stillbirth, or preterm birth

  • Placenta previa or other placental issues

  • Baby’s growth concerns or structural abnormalities

Lifestyle & History:

  • IVF or assisted conception

  • History of complicated deliveries or caesarean sections

How Dr. Tourani Supports High-Risk Pregnancies?

With extensive experience in obstetrics and gynaecology, Dr. Tourani takes a proactive and reassuring approach to managing high-risk pregnancies:

  • More frequent monitoring with customised care plans

  • Collaborative care with endocrinologists, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, and other experts when needed

  • Detailed birth planning to minimise risks and prepare for different delivery scenarios

  • Close monitoring of fetal growth and maternal health with advanced ultrasounds and blood tests

  • Support for both vaginal and caesarean deliveries, depending on individual circumstances

Dr. Tourani also discusses emotional readiness, mental health, and any personal concerns you may have.
