What a High-Risk Pregnancy Means During Fertility Treatment: A CHR Perspective
At the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR), high-risk pregnancy isn’t an exception—it’s the norm. In this episode of The Egg Factor, Dr. Norbert Gleicher dives into what “high-risk” really means, how it’s defined in conventional medicine, and why that definition often fails to account for patients with complex fertility histories.
With a patient population that includes women over 40, those with diminished ovarian reserve, and many who've been turned away elsewhere, CHR has decades of experience navigating the challenges that come with high-risk cases.
Learn how our team approaches these pregnancies differently—from preconception planning through delivery coordination—and why personalized care is essential for both safety and success.
Brought to you by the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR) on the Upper East Side of New York City. With over 40 years of experience and a history of innovation, CHR has been at the forefront of fertility care since the beginning.
Our founder, Dr. Norbert Gleicher, performed the first successful transvaginal egg retrieval in human history, helping to shape the future of IVF as we know it today. CHR is known for tackling some of the most challenging fertility cases—especially women over 40 and those with diminished ovarian reserve—by offering highly individualized, evidence-based care when others often turn patients away.
Our team has published more than 450 peer-reviewed research papers advancing reproductive medicine, reflecting our deep commitment not only to patient care but to the science that drives better outcomes.
At CHR, you're never just a number. You're part of a community focused on giving you the personalized support, science, and hope you deserve.
