A Prospective analytical study of pregnancy outcome in subjects with short birth pregnancy interval at a tertiary care center in South Gujarat

Abstract

Short birth pregnancy intervals have been associated with adverse maternal outcomes like anemia, pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, puerperal infection and maternal mortality and other morbidities. Fetal outcome is preterm birth, low birth weight, IUGR, fetal or neonatal death. Prevention of short birth pregnancy interval can be achieved by post-partum contraception.
