Pre-pregnancy Counselling, Taking Folic Acid
Thanks for posting your query.
I am glad to know that you are aware of the importance of prepregnancy counselling.
The most fertile day is cycle length in 14 days, that means in a 30 days cycle day 16. Hence if you have regular intercourse every 2-3 days interval there is good chance of pregnancy.
The pregnancy rate per month is around 15%. You may try for 8-12 months before you worry about not getting pregnant.
You must eat healthy and exercise regularly.
If you have a personal or family history of diseases like diabetes high blood pressure thyroid disease seizures etc please consult a physician for adequate control before pregnancy.
Ideal BMI should be between 19-25.Try to be close to the target.
I would recommend the following prepreg tests
hemoglobin, blood sugar. TSH, Thalassemia screen, rubella IgG and IgM
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any follow up queries I will be available to answer them.
Best wishes
