High-order multifetal gestations, like this sextuplet pregnancy, are rising due to ovulation induction agents. These pregnancies pose significant risks, including prematurity and poor outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Endocrinology
  • Maternal-Fetal Medicine
  • Clinical Case Reports

Background:

  • Ovulation induction agents have increased high-order multifetal gestations.
  • These pregnancies present elevated risks for maternal morbidity and adverse perinatal outcomes, particularly prematurity.

Observation:

  • This report details a rare case of a sextuplet pregnancy.
  • The pregnancy resulted from ovulation induction using gonadotropins.

Findings:

  • This represents the first documented case of sextuplet pregnancy in Oman.
  • The case highlights the potential for extreme multifetal gestation following gonadotropin therapy.

Implications:

  • Increased vigilance and management strategies are needed for high-order multifetal pregnancies.
