How to calculate gestational age

Patient's question:

I had my last menstrual period on June 1, 2005. How many weeks pregnant am I now?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if you confirm pregnancy, then the calculation of gestational weeks starts from the first day of your last menstrual period. The number of days from then to now is the number of days you have been pregnant. It's simple, just calculate the time yourself. Generally, doctors recommend that women with risk signs of prenatal examinations should maintain a reasonable diet, stay away from spicy and stimulating as well as cold foods. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
