Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I have had three miscarriages. Do I need to get checked before trying to get pregnant? What kind of tests are needed? Where should I get tested? Also, does progesterone help prevent miscarriage?Duration and persistence of the current illness:
Doctor's answer:
The check-up items for expectant mothers include: blood routine, urine routine, liver function, kidney function, electrocardiogram, blood pressure measurement, virus and antibody testing, nutritional status examination, and gynecological examination. For expectant mothers who have had a history of miscarriage, further examinations are required. During the first three months of pregnancy, it is necessary to take small doses of folic acid. This is mainly to reduce the occurrence of neural tube defects in the fetus.
