Patient's question:
I am preparing to go to the hospital for prenatal care tomorrow. For a thorough check-up, fasting is required. What time at night can I not eat anything before the prenatal care?Doctor's answer:
For general prenatal check-ups, you need to avoid bowel movements after 8 PM the night before. By 9 AM the next morning, you should be fasting for the examination. If the examination is performed too late, it may affect the accuracy of the results. During this period before the examination, your diet should be light and avoid various greasy, oily, and fried foods. Do not eat anything after 8 PM the night before, but you can drink a little water if necessary, which should not have a significant impact.
