Do I need to be fasting for pregnancy checkup?

I believe that many people who have had a physical examination know that they need to fast before the examination. This is mainly to check the normal blood routine of the body. However, this method is not very suitable for expectant mothers during pregnancy, because expectant mothers themselves need nutrition during pregnancy. If they do not eat during the examination, it will still have some impact on the body. So, do I need to be on an empty stomach for a pregnancy test?

First, do I need to be on an empty stomach for a pregnancy check? Blood HCG is currently the most accurate and commonly used test to check whether someone is pregnant. It is also an effective way to diagnose ectopic pregnancy. Many people wonder whether they need to fast before measuring HCG in the blood, because many tests require fasting. Generally speaking, it is best to fast, but eating a little breakfast will not have much impact. Because blood HCG is different from traditional blood and urine tests.

Second, early pregnancy check-ups are an important part of prenatal care. Through early pregnancy consultation and examinations, the pregnancy can be confirmed; it can be determined whether the pregnant woman has acute or chronic diseases and whether she can afford the pregnancy; at the same time, it can be determined whether there are certain adverse factors that affect the healthy growth of the embryo. Once a problem is discovered, a diagnosis can be made early to determine whether the pregnancy can continue, early health care guidance can be obtained from a doctor in a timely manner, and effective measures can be taken in a timely manner to ensure the safety of mother and child.

Do I need to be on an empty stomach for a pregnancy check-up? The blood HCG test refers to human chorionic gonadotropin. The early pregnancy test strip mainly detects the HCG hormone in the urine. Generally, the syncytial trophoblast secretes an increase in the HCG hormone in the urine 6 days after conception. Therefore, if you have regular menstruation, it is recommended to test at least 7 days after the menstruation has obviously stopped to confirm pregnancy. If you are already pregnant, you should pay attention to your progesterone level. Based on the progesterone level of pregnant women, we can know whether the physical condition is in a healthy or good state. If the progesterone level is unstable or abnormal, it must be controlled in time, otherwise it will affect the baby in the belly and will not be good for your body. Expectant mothers should pay more attention to their physical condition during pregnancy.
