What happens during the disease - mild to moderate pre-eclampsia
Pre-eclampsia is a disorder of pregnancy characterized by high blood pressure and the presence of proteins in the urine. it is thought to be caused by an abnormal placenta, which does not provide enough nutrients and oxygen to the fetus, leading to a state of low-grade inflammation in the mother. this inflammation triggers a series of cascading events, including the release of hormones, increased vascular resistance, and increased platelet aggregation, which can lead to hypertension and proteinuria in mild to moderate cases.
