Pregnancy

Pregnancy tests are essential for confirming pregnancy early and monitoring the health of the mother and baby throughout the pregnancy. These tests measure specific hormones or use ultrasound technology to track early signs of pregnancy, ensuring early intervention and proper care.

What is it?

Pregnancy tests are diagnostic screenings designed to detect pregnancy. They can measure levels of hormones such as Beta HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin), which is produced after a fertilized egg attaches to the uterine lining. Pregnancy tests can be done through urine, blood tests, or ultrasounds.

Why is it important?

Early detection of pregnancy allows for timely prenatal care, which is crucial for the health of both the mother and the baby. Pregnancy tests help identify potential complications and ensure that proper guidance and treatment can be given from the start of pregnancy.

A comprehensive test to check for several infections that can affect pregnancy, helping to guide appropriate treatment or prevention strategies.

Ultrasonography FWB (Early Pregnancy):

An early pregnancy ultrasound to confirm pregnancy, determine the location of the pregnancy (intrauterine or ectopic), and detect fetal heart activity in the first trimester.

Estimated Price Range:

Pregnancy tests typically range from INR 249.00 to INR 3,960.00, depending on the type of test and its complexity. Discounts, bundle options, and insurance coverage can further affect the total cost.

FAQ’s

A: Yes, ultrasound scans are considered safe and non-invasive for both the mother and the baby. The sound waves used during the scan do not have any known harmful effects.
A: The requirement for a full bladder may vary depending on the healthcare facility and the specific circumstances of the scan. Your healthcare provider or the sonographer will provide instructions regarding bladder preparation if necessary.
A: During the scan, you may see the gestational sac, a small developing embryo with a fetal pole, and, in some cases, a visible heartbeat. The sonographer will explain the findings and provide information about your pregnancy.
A: Yes, an early pregnancy ultrasound scan can detect multiple pregnancies, such as twins or triplets. The scan allows the sonographer to visualize multiple gestational sacs or embryos if present.
A: If an ultrasound scan performed during early pregnancy does not detect a heartbeat, it is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. In some cases, a repeat scan may be recommended to confirm the findings.
