Pratibha Dhanavte has been married for 14 years with a bad obstetric history of three abortions, had Cushings disease where there is excess secretion of stress hormone cortisol due to a tumor in the pituitary gland in the brain, and was operated for pituitary adenoma in 2005. Pratibha has had three miscarriages and had almost given up hopes of getting a healthy baby. Doctors say such patients find it difficult to conceive and carry the pregnancy.

Pratibha conceived again. Dr Pradnya Parulkar,obstetrician and gynaecologist at Global hospitals, closely monitored the patient for the antenatal period with regular sonographies and blood tests, only to find out that the patient did not develop hypertension or diabetes, but was clinically obese.

‘Pratibha was of short stature, whose height is about two standard deviations lower than general population and typical Cushingoid features with a negative blood group; was a complicated case,’ added Dr Parulkar.

Commenting on this, Dr Parulkar said, ‘Pratibha s case was very different and had to be closely monitored throughout to ensure she that had a safe delivery.’ Read: 6 ways pregnant women are body shamed in India.

Dr Manjusha Agarwal, General Physician, Global Hospitals said, Pratibha had multiple health issues when she first visited us. However, we ensured her that she had a safe delivery this time; without any major complications. We combined all the expertise and guided Pratibha on every step and today she is a proud mother of a baby boy.

Pratibha, the over-whelmed mother said, ‘When I had completely lost hope of becoming a mother; this miracle happened, and today I am a happy mother after so many hurdles in my life.’
