A Healthy Pregnancy Begins Before Conception

Most women only see a doctor once they're already pregnant โ€” but the weeks before conception are just as critical. During this window, your nutritional status, underlying health conditions, medications, and lifestyle habits can all significantly impact your ability to conceive and the health of your pregnancy.

Pre-conception care is your opportunity to identify and address any risk factors before they become complications. It gives Dr. Anam the chance to review your medical history, run important tests, start key supplements like folic acid, and give you the personalised guidance your body needs.

Studies show that women who receive pre-conception care have lower rates of pregnancy complications, preterm birth, and low birth weight โ€” making it one of the most impactful investments you can make for your future family.

Your Pre-Conception Health Check

Dr. Anam's pre-conception consultation is comprehensive โ€” covering everything from medical history and blood tests to lifestyle review and emotional readiness. Here's what a typical programme includes:

Complete Medical History Review

Assessment of existing conditions like PCOS, thyroid issues, diabetes, or hypertension that could affect pregnancy.

Blood Tests & Screening

Full blood count, blood group, rubella immunity, thyroid function, blood sugar, iron levels, and STI screening.

Nutritional Guidance & Supplements

Starting folic acid, vitamin D, and iron as appropriate. Personalised dietary advice for optimal fertility and pregnancy health.

Vaccination Review

Checking rubella, hepatitis B, and varicella immunity โ€” vaccinating before pregnancy if needed.

Lifestyle & Weight Counselling

Advice on achieving a healthy BMI, reducing alcohol, stopping smoking, managing stress, and optimising sleep.

Comprehensive Preparation

Every aspect of your health is reviewed so nothing is left to chance when you start trying to conceive.

๐Ÿงฌ

Genetic Counselling

For couples with a family history of genetic conditions, we discuss risk assessment and available testing options before pregnancy.

๐Ÿฆ‹

Thyroid Health

Thyroid disorders are a leading cause of infertility and miscarriage. Testing and optimising thyroid function before conception is essential.

๐Ÿฉธ

Blood Sugar & Diabetes

Uncontrolled blood sugar significantly increases pregnancy risk. We screen and stabilise glucose levels before you conceive.

๐Ÿ’Š

Medication Review

Some medications are unsafe in pregnancy. Dr. Anam reviews all current medications and switches to pregnancy-safe alternatives where needed.

๐ŸŒฟ

Nutritional Optimisation

Folic acid, iron, vitamin D, and omega-3 โ€” tailored supplementation and dietary guidance to build your nutritional foundation.

๐Ÿ’ช

Fertility Assessment

For couples who have been trying to conceive, we assess ovarian reserve, cycle regularity, and other fertility indicators.

Is Pre-Conception Care Right for You?

Pre-conception care is recommended for all women planning a pregnancy โ€” but especially important if any of the following apply.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I start pre-conception care?โ–พ
Ideally 3โ€“6 months before you start trying to conceive. This gives enough time to address any health issues, start supplements, update vaccinations, and make lifestyle changes that need time to take effect โ€” like achieving a healthier weight or stopping certain medications safely.
Should my partner come too?โ–พ
Yes โ€” male health plays an important role in conception and pregnancy outcomes. Sperm quality is affected by smoking, alcohol, heat, and certain medical conditions. A basic male fertility assessment can be arranged and lifestyle advice provided for your partner as well.
I already have PCOS โ€” do I need pre-conception care?โ–พ
Absolutely. PCOS can affect ovulation and increase the risk of gestational diabetes and other pregnancy complications. Pre-conception care for women with PCOS includes cycle regulation, weight optimisation, insulin management, and a carefully timed conception plan to maximise your chances of a healthy pregnancy.
When should I start taking folic acid?โ–พ
Folic acid should ideally be started at least 3 months before you begin trying to conceive. It significantly reduces the risk of neural tube defects in the baby. Dr. Anam will prescribe the right dose for your needs โ€” women with certain conditions may require a higher dose than the standard recommendation.
What if tests reveal a problem?โ–พ
Finding a problem before pregnancy is always better than discovering it during pregnancy. Many conditions โ€” thyroid disorders, anaemia, infections, or suboptimal blood sugar โ€” can be treated or optimised before conception, significantly reducing your risk. Dr. Anam will guide you through every finding and what it means for your pregnancy plans.
Is this only for first-time mothers?โ–พ
Not at all. Pre-conception care is valuable before every pregnancy โ€” especially if you had complications in a previous pregnancy, if your health has changed since your last pregnancy, or if it has been several years since your last baby. Each pregnancy is different and deserves its own preparation.
