Patient's question:
Pregnancy has been more than half a month, and there has been no thorough examination in the hospital yet. What is the best time for the first prenatal examination?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, the best time for the initial prenatal examination is during the early pregnancy period of 6-13 weeks. This allows for the creation of a maternity health record, confirmation of gestational age, estimation of the due date, and tests such as blood and urine routine, blood pressure, weight, electrocardiogram, and hepatitis B surface antigen screening. The doctor will guide the pregnant woman to undergo timely prenatal examinations, maintain a healthy lifestyle, use medications as little as possible, and prevent colds. This helps to reduce the birth rate of infants with congenital defects and improve population quality.
