What tests should I do when I'm pregnant?

Some people do not know what tests to do during their first pregnancy, while others are careless and think that it is no big deal, so they do not take pregnancy checkups very seriously. This is all wrong. After a woman becomes pregnant, she should undergo a series of examinations according to the month of pregnancy. This is the basis for ensuring the health of mother and baby. Therefore, it is important to do necessary check-ups after pregnancy. Let’s take a look at what tests you need to do in the early stages of pregnancy.

What tests are needed for pregnancy

1. Leucorrhea examination: to find out whether there are Trichomonas or fungi in the vagina. If necessary, chlamydia, mycoplasma and gonococcus should be checked. If the above microorganisms are present, it is easy to cause ascending infection, affect embryonic development and induce miscarriage.

2. Cervical smear examination: Due to the increase in blood volume and abundant blood supply during pregnancy, if a tumor occurs in the cervix, timely treatment can improve the survival rate. Therefore, this examination is mainly to understand the morphology of cervical epithelial cells and rule out the occurrence of cervical tumors. Of course, cervical smear examination is a relatively basic examination method. When doubts arise, further colposcopy or cervical biopsy pathological section can be performed to confirm the diagnosis.

3. Ultrasound examination: Ultrasound examination is performed 40 days and 60 days after menstruation to understand the implantation site of the embryonic sac and the development of the embryo. Obstetric registration examination was performed 4 months after pregnancy, and ultrasound follow-up was performed according to obstetric requirements.

4. Gynecological triple examination: mainly to understand whether the size of the uterus is consistent with the month of menopause and whether the embryo is developing normally. When the size of the uterus does not match the month of menopause, an ultrasound examination is required to rule out uterine fibroids, uterine dysplasia, and embryonic dysplasia.

5. Gynecological speculum examination: understand the condition of the vagina and cervix, rule out abnormal development of the pregnant woman's reproductive organs, and provide a channel for the baby to be born smoothly; observe whether the vaginal mucosa is congested, whether the color and amount of vaginal discharge are normal, and whether there is any odor; see whether the cervix is ​​eroded and whether there are cervical polyps; especially when bleeding occurs during early pregnancy, observe whether the cause of bleeding is related to the vagina and cervix to provide a basis for treatment.

6. Other examinations: Choose according to your own situation. If you suffer from heart, liver, kidney, thyroid disease, etc., you need to consult an internist to find out whether continuing the pregnancy will increase the risk. If spontaneous abortion occurs repeatedly, a comprehensive examination of both husband and wife during early pregnancy is very necessary.
