For example, a women described as gravida 5 para 2 has been pregnant 5 times but only 2 of those pregnancies gave her a living child. The rest may have been terminated, miscaried or resulted in a still birth.

What does gravida 3 para 0030 mean?

Gravida means pregnant. The numbers following "gravida" indicate the number of pregnacies, so "Gravida 3" means Third Pregnancy. Para means having given birth to one or more viable infants, and the number following "para" indicates the number of times the woman has given birth. For example, Gravida 5 Para 2 would indicate 5 pregnancies but only 2 infants, meaning 3 miscarriages. Most likely what you're wanting to know is what Gravida 3 Para 3 means- it means 3rd pregnancy resulting in a 3rd infant.

What does gravida 0 para 0 mean?

Gravida and Para is a measure mostly used in medical field to know how many pregnancies and how many deliveries. Gravida 0 means somebody has never been pregnant, but gravida 0 and para 0 is somehow not very convincing since delivery (para) is out of question without getting pregnant. But G1 P1 means one pregnancy and one delivery. If you say just G0, it means 'never been pregnant'. There are also more to para like deliveries, live births, abortions, and living children as P2-0-0-2.
