pre-conception counselling

Pregnant

There are many things to consider when preparing for pregnancy. You want to make sure your body and mind are as healthy as they can be because pregnancy can increase both physical and psychological stressors. Your doctor will work with you to make a plan that will help you achieve optimal health. 

Preconception Plans

To give yourself and your baby the best chance at a healthy pregnancy, your health care should begin before you even conceive. Preconception counseling helps you identify risks to your fertility – social, behavioral, environmenta, and biomedical – and the outcome of your pregnancy so you can reduce those risks. A preconception plan helps you find ways to reduce those risks through education, counseling, and intervention if necessary.
