In order for the healthy development of the fetus, women often need to make preparations in all aspects. Regular prenatal checkups should be conducted during pregnancy to detect safety hazards in a timely manner. There are many items that need to be checked during pregnancy, and the examination items vary at different stages. Some women are not very familiar with this. So, what kind of examinations should be done in the early stages of pregnancy?
In the early stages of pregnancy, gynecological endoscopy should be performed to understand the condition of the female vagina and cervix, rule out any abnormalities in the reproductive organs, so that the fetus can grow in a good environment. Through the examination, it can be seen whether the vaginal mucosa is congested, whether the secretions are normal, whether there is any odor or abnormal color, and whether the cervix is eroded.
White discharge examination is also very important, mainly to check for the presence of pathogens such as trichomonas and fungi. If there are some viral microorganisms present, it is easy to cause ascending infections, which is detrimental to embryonic development and may even induce miscarriage. Cervical scraping examination is also necessary to rule out the possibility of cervical tumors.
In the early stages of pregnancy, ultrasound examination is also necessary to understand the size and development of the embryo sac, as well as whether the fetal heart and buds have appeared. Generally, at 12 weeks of pregnancy, women need to go to the hospital for registration. The first prenatal examination also requires measurements of weight, blood pressure, and other aspects. Doctors will also ask women about their basic information in detail.
