Pregnancy

Pregnancy is the period during which a baby develops inside the uterus, from conception to birth. It involves multiple physical and hormonal changes that require care and medical follow-up throughout its different stages.

Common signs: These usually include the absence of menstruation, nausea, tiredness, breast tenderness, and changes in appetite, although they vary in each woman.

When should you see a doctor? The ideal is to begin prenatal care as soon as pregnancy is suspected or confirmed, and to keep scheduled checkups to monitor the well-being of the mother and the baby.

Which specialist treats it? The obstetrician-gynecologist is the one who accompanies the pregnancy and delivery, with support from maternal-fetal medicine in situations that require special monitoring. Scheduling a timely consultation allows for appropriate follow-up throughout the entire pregnancy.
