FAQ's

During your first consultation, our obstetricians will discuss the onset of symptoms, medical history, family history of genetic disorders, previous medications, and the presence of any comorbidities. A physical examination is then done to see whether there are any abnormal changes. Based on the discussion and your physical examination, you will be suggested to undergo lab tests and various other screening procedures. These include ultrasounds or prenatal screenings to rule out any complications of pregnancy. After a thorough evaluation, our obstetricians will inform you whether your pregnancy is categorised as high-risk or low-risk, its possible risks and complications, pregnancy care, and medications. 
 

Obstetricians make sure that you and your baby are healthy until conception and address any disease or symptoms that can arise during your pregnancy period to prevent complications in pregnancy. Depending on your initial discussions and physical examination, diagnostic and screening procedures usually suggested by obstetricians include:

  • Prenatal screenings, such as amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling, to see if the infant is prone to genetic disorders or infections.

  • Diagnostic images such as ultrasound and the Doppler transducer to assess the uterus, foetus, and placenta.

  • Lab tests, such as Pap smears, urinalysis, glucose tolerance tests for gestational diabetes, and quad screening for congenital defects.

If your pregnancy is categorised as ‘high-risk,’ you will need specialised care and attention to make sure that it does not affect your or the foetus’s health. Several reasons contribute to high-risk pregnancies, such as depression, diabetes, high blood pressure, or other comorbidities or chronic health issues. It is essential to adhere to any instructions advised by our obstetricians to reduce risks during conception. General instructions, however, include:

  • Attending appointment scheduled to monitor the progress of your health and the baby

  • Maintaining a healthy diet by eating vegetables, fruits, and whole grains

  • Performing exercise, breathing, and relaxation techniques

  • Refraining from smoking and drinking

  • Protecting from infections, such as Zika or cytomegalovirus 

  • Abstaining from unprotected sex

  • Minimising stress and anxiety

The Cervical Cerclage procedure involves closing your cervix with one or several sutures to prevent premature birth. The procedure is done for individuals with a weak cervix, which could happen for many reasons. These include previous surgeries such as Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP) or other surgical procedures and past miscarriages, particularly due to a weakened cervix during the second trimester or from an already damaged cervix. During the procedure, you will be administered anaesthesia to numb your pain. However, you might feel mild cramping or spotting, which is normal. Our specialists will prescribe pain management medications to address your pain post-procedure. Nonetheless, it is essential to seek medical attention if it persists for longer.
 

Several parameters conclude the need for a Caeaseran section to address your pregnancy. Although the procedure is generally safe, our specialists take extreme precautions or measures to minimise complications, some of which include: 

  • Infection

  • Bleeding

  • Injury to bladder and intestines

  • Amniotic fluid embolism

  • Uterus inflammation

  • Complications related to anaesthesia

  • Thrombosis (blood clots)

  • Prolonged stay at the hospital and recovery

  • Need for C-sections in future pregnancies

  • Elevated risk of breathing difficulties, breastfeeding challenges, or surgical injury for the baby.

We understand the emotional challenges that can arise during your labour and delivery process. Our obstetricians and gynaecologists are available round-the-clock to address every concern or worry your partner or family members have. In cases of high-risk pregnancies, it is necessary to attend every follow-up appointment and scan to monitor complications and receive an appropriate treatment plan. Family members and loved ones play a crucial role in providing emotional support and assistance during your pregnancy journey. Moreover, the department strives to provide a multidisciplinary approach by including psychiatrists or counsellors to listen, communicate with your partner or family members, and provide encouragement and support during labour.
