While preventing infections that may affect your reproductive system, maintaining sexual hygiene can also significantly elevate the overall hygiene levels of your entire body.<\/li>\n\n<li>Sex:&nbsp;Pre-marital sex counselling is essential as it helps to fill in the gaps in your knowledge of sex. During your consultation with a gynaecologist, you can expect to receive information about the male and female anatomy as well as about the actual act. Even thoughts like&nbsp;sex can be painful&nbsp;get addressed during the counselling.<\/li>\n\n<li>Contraceptives:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vishwashealingcentre.com\/demo\/best-online-mental-health-counseling-therapy-services\/\">Counselling sessions<\/a> with a gynaecologist can also help you in getting your facts right about pregnancy. He or she could guide you on how to work out safe and unsafe days to have sex; talk to you about contraceptive methods; and best family planning practices.<\/li>\n\n<li>Folic acid for pregnancy:&nbsp;During a counselling session, you can expect to be encouraged by a gynaecologist to have Vitamin B (folic acid) before and during your pregnancy to avert birth defects in the brain and spinal cord of your potential offspring.<\/li>\n\n<li>Vaccines:&nbsp;Opting for a counselling session before marriage can help you to learn about vaccines that will protect you against cervical cancer (cancer of the cervix caused mainly by HPV- a virus) and rubella (a disease caused by the rubella virus, which can cause miscarriage, birth defects and stillbirth).<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Medical investigations<\/h3><p>You should also expect investigations based on the following tests:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Complete blood count test:&nbsp;The aim of this test is to assess your overall health and identify a range of disorders such as Anemia, Leukaemia, and infection to name a few.<\/li>\n\n<li>Fasting\/blood sugar test:&nbsp;The test is performed to diagnose diabetes.&nbsp; A fasting blood glucose level of less than 100mg\/dl is considered normal.<\/li>\n\n<li>Thyroid stimulating hormone test:This test is taken to check for problems in the thyroid gland.<\/li>\n\n<li>Rubella test:&nbsp;It is used to identify antibodies that are formed in the blood, as a result of immunization or the rubella infection.<\/li>\n\n<li>HPLC&nbsp;(high performance liquid chromatography):The test is performed to determine Thalassemia.<\/li>\n\n<li>Urine microscopy:&nbsp;The test helps in determining the condition of your urinary tract and kidney.
