Overview

Pregnancy outcome refers to the health and condition of the mother and the newborn during and after pregnancy and delivery, encompassing both favorable results and adverse events such as preterm birth, low or excessive birth weight, fetal growth restriction, stillbirth, and maternal complications. It is a principal measure of reproductive health, integrating the influence of preconception status, prenatal care, maternal nutrition and comorbidity, and the conduct of labor and delivery. Outcomes are shaped by modifiable and non-modifiable factors including maternal age, parity, glycemic and hemoglobin status, the management of pre-existing and gestational conditions, and access to quality antenatal and intrapartum care. Adverse outcomes may arise from conditions such as gestational diabetes, anemia, hypertensive disorders, abnormal placentation, and macrosomia, while teenage pregnancy and nutritional deficiency carry distinct risks. Research grounded in this area examines pregnancy outcome in gestational diabetes under treatment, abnormal placentation including unicornuate uterus with placenta percreta, teenage pregnancy profiles, hemoglobin thresholds and the risk of maternal or fetal adverse effects, nutrition and supplementation during pregnancy, and risk factors for fetal macrosomia. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research in Women's Reproductive Health addressing the determinants of pregnancy outcome, the obstetric and metabolic conditions that influence it, and strategies to improve maternal and neonatal results across varied populations.
