Toxemia
Toxemia is a term associated with pregnancy that refers to preeclampsia, a complication marked by high blood pressure and effects on other organs during pregnancy.
Common symptoms: It may present with high blood pressure, swelling, severe headache, or vision changes, though sometimes it is detected only during prenatal checkups.
When to see a doctor? Any sign of elevated blood pressure, marked swelling, or discomfort during pregnancy warrants prompt attention.
Which specialist treats it? The OB-GYN is the central provider during pregnancy, and the cardiologist can help manage blood pressure. Regular prenatal checkups are key to monitoring this condition in time.
