What is the leave for female employees' prenatal check-ups?

Patient's question:

I found out that I am pregnant. I heard that they say I need to go for prenatal check-ups frequently. So, what kind of leave is considered for female employees' prenatal check-ups?

Doctor's answer:

It is important to realize that undergoing irregular prenatal check-ups is necessary. Health check-ups for female employees, including prenatal care, do not grant any leave. The only time off is when giving birth, and this needs to be understood. Prenatal check-ups are entirely at your own discretion, and they can be scheduled on Saturdays or Sundays. Of course, some better companies do provide this leave, so you need to consult with your own company. According to the country's regulations, there is no legal holiday for this. The number of thorough check-ups is relatively high, usually requiring a recheck every four weeks.
