Can a premarital medical examination for women reveal how many times she has been pregnant?

Pre-marital examinations cannot detect the number of times a woman has been pregnant. However, if doctors inquire about pregnancy and childbirth history, it is important to provide truthful information.

Pre-marital exams are medical assessments designed to evaluate the physical and mental health of both partners. They include genital and general physical examinations, helping to identify whether either partner has sexually transmitted infections, mental illnesses, genetic disorders, reproductive system diseases, or infectious diseases. During the exam, one assessment involves the GPA index, which stands for gravidity (number of pregnancies), parity (number of deliveries), and abortion history (including miscarriages and induced abortions). However, the GPA index is based solely on the woman's self-reporting and is not determined through medical testing. Therefore, pre-marital exams cannot objectively determine how many times a woman has been pregnant.

When preparing for a pre-marital examination, individuals should maintain a light diet in the days leading up to the test to ensure more accurate results. It is also important to follow a regular sleep schedule and avoid staying up late. If an individual has any known medical condition, it is advisable to visit a hospital promptly for more comprehensive evaluations and receive targeted treatment under a doctor’s guidance, so as to prevent worsening of the condition and potential adverse effects on overall health.
