Preconception Care FAQs

  • Health education and family planning: Individuals receive information about healthy lifestyle choices that will support pregnancy and to help with planning when to start a family.
  • Screening of medical conditions: Individuals are screened for common conditions such as diabetes, infections, high blood pressure and appropriate treatment is started.
  • Genetic testing: Genetic testing and couple counselling are necessary to know the risk of any inherited conditions before making a reproductive choice.
  • Immunization: Vaccinations may be important to protect against diseases for both the mother and the baby.

Preconception Care should be started during the “preconception period”. Preconception period is the time before conception occurs and is the window during which optimisation of maternal and fetal outcomes is possible. This is a duration of at least 3 months before you plan conception. For certain medical conditions, preconception care needs to be started much earlier, depending on what the condition and the treatment course is.

Lifestyle changes are integral to preconception care. These changes include encouraging individuals to quit smoking, reducing alcohol consumption, avoiding use of recreational drugs, promoting regular physical activity and maintaining a healthy weight. In addition, environmental exposure to radiation, pollutants and chemicals, and certain medications may also need to be controlled after discussing with your doctor. Stress management is another lifestyle change that needs to be included before pregnancy.

There are various factors that influence infertility in couples. Preconception Care addresses these potential risk factors and optimizes health before pregnancy. It aims to create an environment that is favourable for conception, implantation of uterus and development of the embryo. Embryo development involves various physiological processes that begin early in pregnancy including organ formation and fetal growth. Preconception Care focuses on strategies that help with the physiological processes involved in conception.

  • Folic acid: All individuals who are desiring to get pregnant should start folic acid supplementation and should consume a balanced diet rich in folate. This is especially important in those who are at risk for neural tube defect development.
  • Family and genetic history: During the preconception period, it is vital to discuss with your doctor about the risk of any inheritable disorders based on family history and genetic susceptibility.
  • Weight: Optimal weight should be maintained with Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18.5 and 25 kg/m^2
  • Medical conditions: Routine health check-ups are needed to assess for diabetes, high blood pressure, infection, sexually transmitted diseases or any chronic medical conditions so that it can be treated before conception. 
  • Immunization: Immunization status should be updated and reviewed annually.
