Risk Factors that Increase Maternal Morbidity in Pregnant Women Between 30 to 34 Years of Age

Introduction. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the prevalence of obesity worldwide has nearly tripled since 1975. According to 2016 data, 39% of the global adult population was overweight, and 13% was obese. A recent study, including 20 European countries, concluded that 53% of adults were overweight or obese. Increase in overweight and obesity among women of childbearing age (15 to 44 years). Overweight and obesity during pregnancy are associated with many complications, including increased risk of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus, cesarean delivery, preterm delivery, large-for-gestational-age infants, and stillbirths. Additionally, gestational weight gain is associated with diabetes, pregnancy-induced hypertension, cesarean delivery, postpartum weight retention, macrosomia, and childhood obesity. Materials and Methods. An observational, cross-sectional study in 15 pregnant women in 2022 at the Playa del Carmen General Hospital. Results. Were completed variables of interest in prenatal control. Discussion. The short interval between pregnancies is a public health problem because it leads to adverse perinatal outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage, anemia, preterm delivery, low birth weight, and perinatal deaths. Ineffective or no contraception after one pregnancy contributes to a subsequent pregnancy. Conclusion. It is essential to detect gestational Diabetes mellitus as well as gestational hypertension, and prenatal control should be improved because although pregnant women report carrying it out, it is not reflected in cases of preeclampsia that remains high in pregnant women.&nbsp
