A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Imran Sehgal provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Breech Position: Regular prenatal care helps detect if your baby is in a breech position, giving you and your doctor time to explore different delivery options to reduce potential risks during labor.
• Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Regular monitoring for PCOS can help prevent the development of serious health problems such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease later in life.

• Miscarriages: Managing pre-existing conditions like diabetes or thyroid issues before and during pregnancy can lessen the likelihood of miscarriage.
• Gestational Diabetes: Regular checkups and blood sugar monitoring during pregnancy can identify gestational diabetes early, allowing for timely intervention and reducing long-term health problems.
• High Risk Pregnancy: Careful management of a high-risk pregnancy through regular check-ups and proactive interventions significantly reduces the likelihood of premature birth, low birth weight, and other adverse outcomes.
• Maternal Anemia: Maternal anemia, a deficiency of red blood cells during pregnancy, can be prevented through regular checkups and a healthy diet, ensuring a healthy pregnancy for both mother and baby.
• Chlamydia Infections: Regular checkups, including STI testing, can help detect and treat chlamydia early, preventing potential long-term reproductive health problems.
• Uterine Fibroids: Uterine fibroids can affect fertility and pregnancy, so understanding your risk and seeking preventative care can help you plan for a healthy future.
• Pregestational Diabetes Mellitus: Managing your blood sugar levels before conception significantly lowers your risk of pregnancy-related complications associated with pre-gestational diabetes.
