Pregnancy information:
Knowledge for expectant parents
Colposcopy during pregnancy
Every pregnant woman should undergo a cytological examination during pregnancy. Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in pregnant women. In addition to cytology, a colposcopy is also performed for diagnosis. What does it consist of and is it safe during pregnancy?
Massage during pregnancy
Many people today benefit from the help and care of physiotherapists. This form of treatment for back pain is becoming increasingly popular as no medication is required. This part of the body also hurts during pregnancy. Expectant mothers therefore often ask whether massages are safe during pregnancy.
Antibiotics during pregnancy
Antibiotics are a group of medicines used for bacterial infections. They require a prescription, so the doctor decides whether they should be used. Not all medicines can be used safely during pregnancy. Find out which antibiotics are used for which infections in expectant mothers.
Hair during pregnancy
Women often ask their doctors which hair care and cosmetic procedures are safe during pregnancy. One of the recurring questions is about hair colouring. Is it safe during pregnancy?
Invasive prenatal tests
Modern perinatology makes it possible to make an accurate diagnosis at the very beginning of pregnancy. Invasive prenatal tests aim to determine with almost 100 per cent certainty, among other things, the karyotype of the baby and thus whether or not it has chromosomal defects. Find out what types of invasive tests there are and when they are performed.
SPA during pregnancy
Spa treatments are very popular these days. They are a form of relaxation and a way to spend time. Many women use spas before they become pregnant and wonder if it is safe to do so during the nine months they are expecting a baby. Find out which spa treatments are safe during pregnancy.
Obesity during pregnancy
Obesity is a disease that affects an increasingly large part of the population. Even pregnant women are not spared. Both before and during pregnancy, obesity can lead to complications.
Cysts in pregnancy
Ovarian cysts affect many women. Most of the time they are not associated with any symptoms and are discovered by chance during an ultrasound examination. The same applies to ovarian cysts during pregnancy. Although they need to be monitored, in most cases they do not affect the course of the pregnancy and birth. Find out what types of cysts there are.
Activated charcoal during pregnancy
Activated charcoal is a widely used product that can be bought at the pharmacy without a prescription. Many people take it when they suffer from diarrhoea. Is it safe to use during pregnancy?
