Patient's question:
I have been married for over two years. Before getting married, I had a pre-marital health check-up, and everything was within the normal range. Now, I am planning to have a child. Should I get checked first? What specific tests do I need to have?Doctor's answer:
Both parties need to undergo physical examinations, routine blood, urine, and stool tests, as well as liver and kidney function tests. Special pre-pregnancy tests include hepatitis B surface antigen and antibody tests, syphilis, HIV, and other sexually transmitted disease tests, ABO hemolysis tests, diabetes tests, and TORCH tests. If there is a family history of genetic diseases, please consult a hospital. When necessary, relevant tests should be conducted to prevent the occurrence of genetic diseases in the next generation.
