Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition in which abnormalities in kidney function or structure persist for 3 months or longer. In the early stages there are often no particular symptoms, so the disease may go unnoticed and be discovered only after it has progressed considerably. People who have diabetes or high blood pressure, or who have a family history of kidney disease, need regular testing. If a health checkup reveals a kidney abnormality, please consult a medical specialist to confirm it.2026-06-26

A high-risk pregnancy is a pregnancy with a higher chance than usual of adversely affecting the mother and the fetus. Advanced maternal age (35 or older) is one risk factor for a high-risk pregnancy. Recognizing your own risk factors and following your medical team's guidance can help lead to a good outcome.2026-06-26
