What is a pre-pregnancy checkup?
A pre-pregnancy (preconception) checkup is a visit to prepare your body for a healthy pregnancy.

- Women with irregular periods, painful periods or known gynecologic conditions

- Women who had a previous pregnancy loss or complication

Frequently asked questions
How early before pregnancy should I have a checkup?
About 3 months before trying is a common suggestion. This allows time for vaccines, such as MMR, which require waiting before conception, and for starting folic acid. The doctor can adjust the plan for you.
Can my partner be tested too?
Eunice Women's Clinic is a women's clinic. Male partners can have tests such as semen analysis at a urology clinic. The doctor can advise what is useful. Planning together can help both partners prepare.
Do I need the AMH test?
It is optional. AMH estimates ovarian reserve and can help with planning, especially for women over about 35. It does not predict natural fertility on its own. The doctor explains the result in English.
Can I get vaccines on the same day?
Sometimes. If your immunity status is already known, vaccines can be given at the visit. Otherwise the doctor usually waits for test results. Pregnancy is ruled out before MMR. Ask when you book.
