Understanding Gravida: What You Need to Know About Your Pregnancy History

Gravida is a medical term that refers to the number of times a woman has been pregnant, including current pregnancy and any previous pregnancies that may have ended in miscarriage, stillbirth, or live birth.

For example, if a woman has been pregnant three times and has given birth to two children, she would be considered gravida 3. If she has also had one miscarriage, she would still be considered gravida 3, as the miscarriage is included in the count.

Gravida is an important factor in obstetric care, as it helps healthcare providers assess the risks and complications associated with each pregnancy. For example, a woman who has been pregnant multiple times may be at higher risk for complications such as gestational diabetes or hypertension.
