What is a Multipara? Understanding the Term and Its Significance in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Multipara is a term used in obstetrics and gynecology to describe a woman who has given birth to multiple children, typically four or more. The term is derived from the Latin words "multi" meaning "many" and "para" meaning "children".

A multipara is often contrasted with a primipara, which is a woman who has given birth to only one child. The terms are used to help healthcare providers quickly identify a woman's reproductive history and any potential risks or complications that may be associated with subsequent pregnancies.
