Abstract

Obesity in pregnancy is a health problem that affects both mother and fetus, and increases the complications such as hypertension, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. This study aims to summarize the literature related to the impact of obesity on pregnant women and fetuses and treatment methods to manage this risk. Based on a literature review of various observational, experimental, and literature studies, it was found that obesity in pregnant women correlates with a high risk of complications, including macrosomia and congenital defects in the fetus. Prevention and management efforts according to the Ministry of Health (MOH) and WHO guidelines, such as nutrition education, family support, dietary regulation, physical activity, and health programs such as GERMAS, have proven effective in reducing the risk of complications. This review is expected to provide comprehensive recommendations to improve the health of pregnant women and fetuses.
