MFM (Maternal-Fetal Medicine)

Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) is a specialized area of obstetrics focused on the health of pregnant women with high-risk pregnancies and the development and well-being of the fetus. MFM doctors, or perinatologists, manage complex pregnancy conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or fetal growth issues. They use advanced imaging, tests, and interventions to monitor and address potential complications, aiming to ensure the best outcomes for both mother and baby. Essentially, MFM provides expert care for pregnancies with added medical challenges, helping to optimize health and safety during pregnancy and delivery.
