Abstract :Aim There are studies showing that acquiring Coronavirus Disease 2019 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(COVID-19); while pregnant might cause vascular damage, affect uterine blood circulation, and worsen pregnancy outcomes. In this study, we looked at the first-trimester placental development and pregnancy outcomes in people who conceived after getting better from COVID-19. We also looked into the durability of the COVID-19\`s effects on pregnancy. Matherials and Methods This prospective case-control study investigates placental volume and uterine artery Doppler flow differences in pregnant women with COVID-19 exposure within a year prior to pregnancy versus healthy pregnant controls. Result In a study involving 50 patients and 50 controls, it was discovered that demographic traits like age, birth rate, and body mass index were comparable. There were statistically insignificant slight differences in these results when different outcomes, including as oligohydramnios, preterm, preeclampsia, and intrauterine growth retardation, were studied. While birth weight revealed similarity between the two groups, placental volume and uterine artery Doppler results did not reveal any appreciable variations. Conclusion No distinction between the groups\` placental or Doppler readings was found in the investigation that was completed. This work has helped identify the impacts of COVID-19 contracted prior to pregnancy on gestation, whereas previous study has mainly focused on the impact of COVID-19 infected during pregnancy.
