Which department should I go to for the first pregnancy checkup?

The first pregnancy should be seen by a gynecologist, and a urine pregnancy test should be done first to determine whether you are pregnant. Gynecological ultrasound is performed to determine whether the location of the gestational sac is an intrauterine pregnancy and to rule out ectopic pregnancy. Secondly, blood tests, such as thyroxine tests, are also required. Since low thyroid hormone levels can affect the growth and development of the fetus' central nervous system, thyroid hormone testing in early pregnancy is very important. Other tests include blood sugar testing to rule out diabetes, measuring basic blood pressure, liver function tests, kidney function, blood sugar and other biochemical test indicators, which can determine whether the current condition of the person is suitable for pregnancy, and whether there are any diseases before pregnancy that affect pregnancy. Based on the results of the maternal examination, a comprehensive assessment is made.

The first pregnancy check should be done by a gynecologist. It is best to perform a urine hCG test 5 to 7 days after your period is delayed. If the menstrual cycle is unstable, you can choose to have a blood hcg test ten days after having sex, and judge whether you are pregnant based on the test result value. You can also choose to do a gynecological color ultrasound examination ten days after the menstruation is delayed, which can immediately show the specific location of the gestational sac and its size and development status. During the first three months of pregnancy, strenuous activities and sexual intercourse are strictly prohibited. In addition, folic acid should be taken orally to prevent the birth of a deformed fetus.

If the menstrual period is delayed and postponed, and you have normal sexual life during this period and do not use any contraceptive methods, the possibility of pregnancy is relatively high. If you want to check whether you are pregnant, you should go to the gynecology department. Generally, hospitals including secondary and tertiary hospitals have gynecology departments. After going to the gynecology department, find a gynecologist and tell the gynecologist the first day of your due date. The gynecologist will calculate the number of days of pregnancy based on the first day of the due date.

Generally, the urine pregnancy test can be used to basically determine whether you are pregnant 30-35 days after menstruation. Generally, 6-7 weeks after menstruation, at this time, ultrasound measurement can be used. If the presence of a gestational sac and fetal heartbeat and fetal heart rate in the uterus is shown, and the fetal heartbeat and fetal heart rate are seen, pregnancy will be diagnosed, and it is a normal intrauterine pregnancy. Therefore, in order to check whether you are pregnant, you should go to the gynecology department and conduct corresponding regular examinations under the guidance of the doctor.
