Pre Conceptional Counselling
What is Pre-Conceptional Counselling?
Planning a family is a beautiful milestone, and preparing your body beforehand is the single most effective way to support a healthy pregnancy. Pre-Conceptional Counselling is a proactive, clinical wellness strategy for couples preparing to conceive. By thoroughly evaluating physical health, genetic risks, nutritional status, and lifestyle factors before pregnancy begins, couples can significantly reduce pregnancy risks and support healthy fetal development from day one.
At June Women's Health, recognized as a leading hormonal wellness and family planning center in Sushant Golf City and Lucknow, Lucknow, we provide a private, confidential screening environment. Dr. Shamim Sultana Yashine conducts comprehensive diagnostic screens, guides you through proper folic acid dosing, and advises on optimal health choices to make your parenthood journey safe and stress-free.
Because we run a focused, single-doctor private clinic rather than a busy corporate hospital, your consultations are conducted personally by Dr. Shamim Sultana Yashine. We operate by prior appointments to ensure that every couple receives absolute privacy, meticulous attention, and clinical accuracy in a highly sterilized clinical environment.
Unplanned vs. Planned Pregnancy: Pre-pregnancy Comparison
A planned pregnancy allows us to create the perfect biological environment for your baby to grow, significantly reducing maternal and fetal risks.
Unplanned Pregnancy
Higher Risk. Reactive Interventions.
Higher risk of birth defects if vital folic acid was not taken prior to conception.
Thyroid levels or blood glucose may be uncontrolled during early fetal development.
Mother may lack immunity to Rubella or Varicella, exposing the fetus to viral risks.
Exposure to daily medications that are harmful to early developmental stages.
Higher anxiety levels due to lack of physical preparation and unexpected changes.
Planned Pregnancy
Mitigated Risk. Proactive Health.
Defects reduced by up to 70% through pre-pregnancy folic acid supplementation.
Thyroid levels and HbA1c are medically stabilized before conception is attempted.
Vaccination mapping catches up on Rubella and Varicella defenses before pregnancy.
High-risk daily drugs are carefully swapped for pregnancy-safe alternatives.
Lower stress levels and high confidence due to physical readiness and expert advice.
Key Elements of Pre-Pregnancy Checkups
Our clinical method focuses on complete physiological assessment. We conduct precise screening elements to build a secure biological foundation for gestation.
Comprehensive Ovarian & Uterine Scan
A high-resolution pelvic ultrasound to evaluate uterine structure and assess ovarian reserves (antral follicle count), ruling out structural obstacles before conception.
Biochemical & Hormonal Panels
Evaluating thyroid markers (TSH, Free T4), fasting blood glucose, and hemoglobin levels to verify maternal metabolic readiness and support stable embryogenesis.
Infection & Immunization Profiling
Testing maternal IgG antibody levels for Rubella and Varicella, and screening for chronic viral markers (Hepatitis B, HIV) to plan catch-up vaccines safely.
Genetic & Hemoglobinopathy Screen
Screening couples for thalassemia minor and other genetic carrier statuses to evaluate hereditary transmission risks and formulate an evidence-based clinical path.
Pre-Conceptional Counselling & Supplement Schedules
Optimizing nutritional reserves and balancing current medical treatments sets the stage for healthy conception. Review the vital pre-pregnancy preparation schedules.
Prenatal Folic Acid Intake
Daily intake of 400 mcg of folic acid starting 1 to 3 months before active attempts to conceive is critical to reduce fetal neural tube defects (spina bifida) by over 70%.
Active Medication Review
Evaluating all daily medications (for acne, blood pressure, or diabetes) to switch teratogenic drugs to pregnancy-safe options before fertilization occurs.
Nutritional & BMI Optimization
Designing customized, local low-glycemic index dietary pathways to optimize body mass index (BMI), which improves fertility rates and prevents gestational complications.
