Thank you!

Based on your results, you are not considered high-risk. Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of gestational gynecological diseases maintain personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. We wish the patient a healthy delivery.
