Pre-Pregnancy Counselling and Early Pregnancy Scans in Kochi

Pre-pregnancy and early pregnancy evaluation can help identify maternal or fetal risk factors before complications develop. The Fetal Medicine team at Apollo Adlux Hospital provides counselling and early ultrasound assessment for women planning pregnancy and those in the first weeks of pregnancy.

Pre-Pregnancy Counselling

Pre-pregnancy counselling is particularly useful for women with previous pregnancy complications, recurrent pregnancy loss, a family history of genetic disorders, medical conditions or previous babies affected by congenital abnormalities.

The consultation may include evaluation of previous medical and obstetric history, genetic risk assessment and advice regarding investigations or monitoring that may be required in a future pregnancy.

Early Pregnancy Scans

Early pregnancy ultrasound helps confirm the location and viability of the pregnancy, estimate gestational age and identify the number of fetuses.

In multiple pregnancies, early ultrasound can also help determine chorionicity, which is important for planning subsequent monitoring.
