Abstract
Pregnancy is a complex physiological state characterized by dynamic changes in the maternal body to support fetal growth and development. However, this intricate process can also lead to increased oxidative stress, characterized by an imbalance between the productions of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the body’s ability to neutralize them. Excessive oxidative stress during pregnancy has been linked to various gestational complications, including preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and preterm birth, highlighting the need for interventions to enhance maternal and fetal well-being. Antioxidant therapy has emerged as a promising approach to counteract oxidative stress and mitigate its adverse effects during pregnancy. This review explores the current state of knowledge regarding the role of antioxidants in pregnancy, focusing on their potential benefits in improving maternal health and optimizing fetal development.
