How long should you wait to have a prenatal check-up after getting pregnant?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I've been pregnant for a month and I want to have a prenatal examination. How long should I wait after getting pregnant to have a prenatal examination?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is around 40 days after conception that it is recommended to visit the hospital for a pregnancy test. An ultrasound examination can be performed for a thorough check. At around 40 days of pregnancy, the gestational sac can typically enter the uterine cavity. Through ultrasound examination, ectopic pregnancy and other conditions can be ruled out. Additionally, it is recommended to have a complete blood count test to rule out the possibility of anemia. Rest and enhance dietary nutrition during pregnancy. It is best to eat more vegetables and fruits. Pay attention to personal living habits and maintain a healthy diet.
