How many weeks into pregnancy do you need to have a follow-up check-up?

Patient's question:

Female, 27 years old, second pregnancy, 5.5 months today, did a 3D color Doppler ultrasound, the width of the fetal lateral ventricle is 0.4, is it normal?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, you need to have prenatal check-ups once a month before 28 weeks of pregnancy, every two weeks between 28 and 36 weeks, and once a week after 36 weeks. However, the specific requirements may vary slightly between different regions and hospitals. Throughout the entire pregnancy, you may need to undergo 10 to 15 prenatal check-ups.
Advice: The number of prenatal check-ups depends on your medical history, whether complications arise during pregnancy, and whether you have conditions like high blood pressure that require more frequent monitoring.
