Summary

A 37-year-old nulligravida with a one-year history of well-controlled essential hypertension is referred to your high-risk obstetrics clinic for preconception counseling. Recent comprehensive investigations are free of end-organ dysfunction. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, she lost weight over the past year; her body mass index (BMI) is now 31 kg/m2. She uses condoms for contraception and is adherent to long-acting nifedipine once daily; folic acid–containing prenatal vitamins were initiated last month.
