It can increase the risk of preterm birth and stillbirth in fetus and postpartum hemorrhage in mothers. The main symptoms are severe pruritus. Since this condition is hormone-induced, it is a reversible condition and likely to recur in subsequent pregnancy. Early diagnosis, adequate treatment, and well-timed delivery are imperative for better maternal and fetal outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This is a prospective observational study done in a tertiary care center, RIMS, Ranchi, Jharkhand. Data were collected from 203 affected pregnant females from July 2023 to June 2024. Proper history, examination, and investigations were done.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The incidence was found to be 2.62% in our hospital. Women of 26\u201330 years were affected mostly (33.99%). 53.69% were from rural areas and belonged to the lower middle socioeconomic class. Primigravidae were affected more (45.81%). Jaundice was the most common complication (8.87%). Postpartum hemorrhage was observed in 8.87% of cases. 28.5% had preterm delivery. Intrauterine fetal death was seen in 4.43% and 1.97% had stillbirth in women affected with the disorder. Liver enzymes were significantly raised.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>It affects the fetal outcome adversely, resulting in preterm birth, fetal distress, stillbirth, meconium aspiration, and respiratory distress syndrome. There is a high risk of postpartum hemorrhage in mothers. Proper counseling, investigations, and treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid will help in alleviating the symptoms and result in a better outcome for the mother and fetus. It is a self-limiting condition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/aam.aam_100_25","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,23]],"date-time":"2025-07-23T17:01:53Z","timestamp":1753290113000},"page":"509-513","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Fetomaternal Outcome in Obstetric Cholestasis in a Tertiary Care Hospital"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"25","author":[{"family":"Madhu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rani","family":"Hansda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Atima","family":"Bharti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Priya","family":"Kumari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20260504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"120","DOI":"10.1097\/AOG.0000000000000346","article-title":"Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy","volume":"124","author":"Williamson","year":"2014","journal-title":"Obstet Gynecol"},{"key":"R2-20260504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"5781","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.14.5781","article-title":"Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy-current achievements and unsolved problems","volume":"14","author":"Kondrackiene","year":"2008","journal-title":"World J Gastroenterol"},{"key":"R3-20260504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"269","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ogc.2010.02.011","article-title":"Cholestasis of pregnancy","volume":"37","author":"Pathak","year":"2010","journal-title":"Obstet Gynecol Clin North Am"},{"key":"R5-20260504","first-page":"e30657","article-title":"Effects of intrahepatic cholestasis on the foetus during pregnancy","volume":"14","author":"Sahni","year":"2022","journal-title":"Cureus"},{"key":"R6-20260504","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e95","DOI":"10.1111\/1471-0528.17206","article-title":"Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists.
