Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Gao Yulian
Preconception health examinations involve a comprehensive set of tests. Women require a thorough gynecological evaluation to assess for any gynecological disorders, as well as screening for the “five key infectious agents” (Toxoplasma gondii, Rubella virus, Cytomegalovirus, Herpes simplex virus, and others), pelvic ultrasound, complete blood count (CBC), and urinalysis. Men should undergo routine semen analysis to evaluate for abnormalities in semen parameters; additionally, they may opt for prostatic fluid analysis and CBC at the hospital for further assessment.
