What age is considered high risk pregnancy?
My sister is thinking of having a second child, and she's just turned 35. Her doctor used the term 'high-risk pregnancy' for her age. At what age does a pregnancy start being considered high risk?

I was studying this in my biology class recently. Apparently, pregnancies under 17 and over 35 are both considered high risk by doctors because of different health factors.

Waise toh 35 ke baad doctors high risk bolne lagte hain, par aajkal sab late hi plan karte hain, na? Bas starting se acche gynecologist ke touch mein rehna chahiye, haan.

My wife was 36 during her pregnancy, which is technically high risk. We managed it well by replacing heavy junk cravings with healthy dry fruits and fresh juices under her doc's guidance.

Any pregnancy above 35 is clinically categorized as high risk, but let's be real, with modern medicine it's totally manageable. Just stick to your doctor's advice and do the scheduled genetic screenings.
