AKUH Hosts ‘Hope in High-Risk Pregnancy’ Event Offering Free Expert Consultations

The Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH) recently hosted a public awareness session titled Hope in High-Risk Pregnancy, organised by the Section of Maternal and Foetal Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at AKUH. The session aimed to educate and support couples and families with expert guidance and free consultations. Participants received valuable information on how to identify early warning signs, manage medical and emotional challenges during pregnancy and make informed decisions with the help of healthcare professionals. “High-risk pregnancies require early identification and compassionate, specialised care,” said Dr. Ayesha Malik, Section Head of Maternal and Foetal Medicine at AKUH. “Through this session, we hope to empower women and families with the knowledge they need to navigate these challenges safely and confidently.” She encouraged anyone who is planning a pregnancy, currently experiencing complications, or has had a complex pregnancy in the past to consult a Maternal-Foetal Medicine specialist early, to help ensure the best possible outcomes for both mother and baby.
