Patient's question:
I am pregnant now, I want to do prenatal care, but I haven't registered for the card. Hello, can I do prenatal care without a registration card?Doctor's answer:
You can have prenatal care even without a medical record. The estimated gestational age starts from the first day of your last menstrual period. You can have your first thorough check-up at 50 days of pregnancy. Ultrasound can help assess the development of the embryo, and normally, there should be a gestational sac and fetal heartbeat. It is recommended to create a maternal and child health record before 13 weeks of pregnancy. Follow the doctor's advice to have regular prenatal check-ups. The purpose of creating a medical record is to provide comprehensive and systematic management throughout the pregnancy. If you haven't created a medical record yet, it is still recommended to go to the hospital to do so in a timely manner.
