Common Tests During Pregnancy: Ensuring a Healthy Journey

Pregnancy is a beautiful journey that requires regular monitoring to ensure the health of both the mother and baby. At Mahabir Doctor’s Hub, we offer comprehensive prenatal testing to provide expecting mothers with the best care.

Essential Pregnancy Tests 

1. Blood and Urine Tests

• Confirm pregnancy and check for infections.
• Monitor hemoglobin levels to prevent anemia.
• Screen for gestational diabetes and thyroid issues.
• Identify blood type and Rh factor compatibility.
• Check for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) that could affect pregnancy.

These tests provide crucial information about maternal health and help in early detection of potential complications.

2. Ultrasound Scans

• Early pregnancy scans confirm fetal heartbeat and due date.
• Anomaly scans (done around 18-22 weeks) check for birth defects.
• Growth scans ensure the baby is developing properly.
• Doppler scans assess blood flow to the placenta and fetus.

Ultrasound scans help track fetal development and detect any abnormalities early on.

3. Genetic Screening Tests

• Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) detects chromosomal abnormalities.
• Dual and quadruple marker tests assess genetic risks.
• Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) for high-risk pregnancies.

These screenings help identify any potential genetic disorders and allow for early medical intervention if necessary.

Regular check-ups and timely tests ensure a smooth pregnancy. At Mahabir Doctor’s Hub, we provide expert consultations and advanced diagnostic facilities to support you throughout your pregnancy journey.
