Pre-pregnancy blood test: What is checked?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Okay, blood tests are required for complete blood count, viruses, antibodies, and the six sexual health tests! However, the six sexual health tests have a time requirement and must be done on days 3-5 of the menstrual cycle. Therefore, for the other tests without a time restriction, you can have your blood drawn at the same time as the six sexual health tests.
