To summarise the literature regarding susceptibility of pregnant women to heart disease, we have conducted a review using a PubMed search and other strategies during the month of february 2021. Studies were included if they reported information on heart disease in pregnant women pregnant existing conditions which can predispose the pregnant woman to cardiovascular disease included hypertension, diabetes mellitus and congenital heart disease. Women often present with symptoms and signs of acute heart failure. On the other hand there is a disease which is directly related to pregnancy such as hypertension disorder of pregnancy and peripartum cardiomyopathy or where pregnancy increases risk of a disease as example, the risk of a myocardial infarction. This review summarises the knowledge about awareness on pregnancy related heart disease.
