Relating to or characteristic of pregnancy; of or pertaining to the pregnant state or pregnancy conditions.
From Greek 'kyesis' (pregnancy) plus the suffix '-ic' (relating to). This medical adjective appears in clinical terminology to describe conditions, changes, or phenomena associated with pregnancy.
Doctors use 'cyetic changes' to describe all the dramatic transformations a woman's body goes through during pregnancy—it's a concise way to reference the whole cascade of hormonal, physiological, and anatomical shifts! The word lets you talk about pregnancy clinically and precisely.
Adjective form of cyesis; carries the same historical exclusion of pregnant persons' voices from medical definition and management of their own reproductive experiences.
Use descriptively in clinical contexts, but balance with person-centered framing that honors pregnant persons' expertise.
["pregnancy-related","gestational"]
Pregnant persons and their support networks hold experiential expertise that medical terminology alone cannot capture; their voices must be centered in perinatal care.
