Patient's question:
Today I used a pregnancy test to check and found out that I am pregnant. A bit of a surprise, so how many weeks pregnant is the first prenatal check-up?Doctor's answer:
If you are pregnant now, you need to go to the hospital to check blood hCG and progesterone to see how these values are. Around week six of pregnancy, you can have an ultrasound to check the growth and development of the embryo. Around week 12, you can have an NT screening. Between weeks 16 and 20, you can have a Down syndrome screening. Between weeks 22 and 26, you can have a 4D ultrasound to rule out abnormalities. Make sure to rest well, pay attention to nutrition, and complete all prenatal check-ups.
