I'm planning for a baby and have some questions about health checks before we start trying. What tests should my husband and I get done to make sure everything is okay for pregnancy? I'm also scheduled for LASIK eye surgery soon will that affect my baby plans? What general health and fitness steps should we focus on before conceiving?

Please do basic tests like CBC, TSH, RBS, RUBELLA IGG, HPLC, VIRAL MARKERS to be sure that all her parameters are normal and we do not need any medication or vaccine. If you do not conceive naturally for 3 months then do a semen analysis also. Best time to have relation is day 10 to day 17

I'm wondering what the early pregnancy symptoms are, like ten days after having sex but before a missed period. What should I be looking out for?

In early pregnancy, around 10 days after intercourse, some women may experience mild symptoms such as implantation bleeding, light cramping, breast tenderness, and fatigue. These symptoms can vary and are often similar to those seen before a missed period, so a pregnancy test after a missed period is the most reliable way to confirm pregnancy.

I had a medical abortion on August 17th and then on September 18th, I noticed some spotting and a brown discharge, kind of like the start of a period. It was really light and just lasted for a day. After that, it completely stopped, and now there's no bleeding or spotting at all. Should I be concerned or is this normal? Please advise.

you need to consult your gynac for evaluation
