Which department should I go to in the early stages of pregnancy?

Modern people pay special attention to eugenics when they are pregnant. Most people usually go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination after pregnancy to determine the health of the fetus and pregnant women. However, as we all know, there are many departments in the hospital. Some departments are more detailed, while some are not. When women go to the hospital for pregnancy examination, they usually don’t know which department to go to?

Which department should I go to during early pregnancy?

Early pregnancy check-ups are usually done in the obstetrics and gynecology department. If your local hospital has a family planning department, you can also ask. In some hospitals, early pregnancies are checked by the family planning department, and the obstetrics department only checks pregnancies after 28 weeks.

What should expectant mothers prepare for the first check-up?

The first prenatal check-up is the time for expectant mothers to share more information with their doctors. Bring your ID card and birth permit, and the doctor will create a card for you, which is your pregnancy physical examination record. From now on, the doctor will record all your relevant prenatal examination information on it. The expectant father should be brought along for the first prenatal check-up, and the doctor also needs to understand the health of you and his immediate family members and family members.

After the pregnancy is confirmed, go to the relevant obstetrics and gynecology institution within 12 weeks of amenorrhea to create a "Maternal and Child Health Handbook" and have the first prenatal check-up. During the 16th to 28th week of pregnancy, the check-up should be every four weeks; during the 28th to 36th week of pregnancy, the check-up should be every two weeks. After the 36th week of pregnancy, check once a week, and check 13 times a week. Older pregnant women should increase the frequency of checkups.

Expectant mothers need to understand some relevant knowledge before going to the hospital so that they can avoid certain situations and have a smooth examination. Prenatal check-up is something that expectant mothers must do during pregnancy. Understand your own condition and adjust your body; understand the condition of the fetus and ensure its healthy growth.

What tests are good for confirming pregnancy?

Early pregnancy test paper: First, collect urine in a clean cup, open the pregnancy test package, take out the reagent and place it horizontally in a dry place, use a dropper to absorb the urine to be tested, and drop it into the groove of the test card. Wait for a few minutes until the urine in the test card is completely absorbed, then take out the test piece to know whether you are pregnant or not.

Blood test (HCG) test: Blood test (HCG) is the earliest way to know the pregnancy result. You can do a blood HCG test about 10 days after sex to confirm whether you are pregnant.

Type B ultrasound examination: As early as the 5th week of pregnancy, which is one week after the menstrual period, a round halo in the uterus, also known as the pregnancy ring, can be shown on the Type B ultrasound screen. The dark area inside the ring is amniotic fluid, in which a rhythmic fetal heartbeat can also be seen. Using B-ultrasound to diagnose early pregnancy is the most accurate and reliable method.
