High blood pressure during pregnancy can increase the risk of serious complications for both mother and baby. At NUR Fertility in Nairobi, we offer expert care for women experiencing gestational hypertension, chronic hypertension, or preeclampsia. Our goal is to provide early detection, close monitoring, and effective treatment to ensure a safe and healthy pregnancy outcome.
There are several types of hypertension that can occur during pregnancy:
Chronic hypertension: High blood pressure diagnosed before pregnancy or in the early weeks of pregnancy
Gestational hypertension: High blood pressure that develops after 20 weeks of pregnancy without signs of organ damage
Preeclampsia: A more serious condition that includes high blood pressure with signs of organ involvement (such as protein in urine or liver abnormalities)
Each of these conditions requires specialized care to protect the health of the mother and the developing baby.

At NUR Fertility, we take a proactive and personalized approach to managing high blood pressure during pregnancy. Our services include:
Baseline blood pressure assessments and medical history review
Regular prenatal checkups to monitor changes and track symptoms
Blood and urine tests to detect early signs of preeclampsia
Fetal monitoring through ultrasounds and growth scans
Lifestyle guidance including low-sodium diet and safe physical activity
Medication management, when needed, to keep blood pressure within a safe range
Birth planning to ensure a safe delivery for both mother and baby
We prioritize non-invasive methods when possible and offer close supervision if medication becomes necessary.
If not properly monitored and treated, hypertension in pregnancy can lead to complications such as:
Preeclampsia and eclampsia (severe high blood pressure with seizures)
Preterm labor
Restricted fetal growth
Placental abruption
Organ damage in the mother
Increased risk of cesarean delivery
Stillbirth
Our team at NUR Fertility works diligently to detect warning signs early and reduce the risk of complications through continuous care.
High blood pressure can affect how well the placenta functions. We provide fetal well-being assessments to ensure your baby is receiving enough oxygen and nutrients. This may include growth ultrasounds, Doppler studies, and non-stress tests depending on your condition.
