Pregnancy management
Pregnancy management in the IVMED clinic
Pregnancy management is a set of medical and physiological measures aimed at ensuring the health of the mother and her unborn child throughout the entire period of pregnancy. This is one of the most important stages in the life of every woman, requiring careful observation and constant monitoring of the health of the pregnant woman and the fetus. Proper care during pregnancy reduces the risk of complications that may arise during its development and contributes to a successful delivery.
TheIVMED clinic in Kyiv provides highly qualified medical care at all stages of pregnancy, offering an individual approach to each patient. Pregnancy management in the clinic “IVMED” involves the use of modern examination and diagnostic methods that provide maximum comfort and safety for a pregnant woman and her child.
Our obstetricians and gynecologists and medical staff constantly monitor the development of pregnancy, starting from the first visit to the clinic until the moment of delivery. The pregnancy management program includes all the necessary consultations, examinations and medical procedures to ensure a normal pregnancy and prevent possible complications.
Examination in the early stages of pregnancy
If menstruation is delayed for 1-2 weeks, a woman should consult an obstetrician-gynecologist to confirm the presence of pregnancy, in particular by means of an ultrasound examination (ultrasound) to detect a fetal egg in the uterine cavity. If the results of the ultrasound confirm a physiological pregnancy, the doctor will provide recommendations regarding lifestyle, work and rest, physical activity, sexual relations, and medications.
When an embryo is detected during an ultrasound and its heartbeat is clearly recorded, the doctor determines the exact gestational age and invites the woman to register for pregnancy. Early registration is of great importance, especially for pregnancies with a high risk of complications, such as pregnancies achieved through assisted reproductive technologies (ART) or for women with habitual miscarriages. This also applies to pregnant women with certain health problems.
If the pregnancy is uneventful, the doctor recommends checkups every 3-4 weeks until the 30th week of pregnancy, after which the number of visits increases to two per month. Starting from the 36th week of pregnancy, a pregnant woman should attend a consultation every 10-14 days. In the presence of any complications or somatic diseases, the doctor determines the frequency of visits, focusing on the state of health of the pregnant woman and the fetal development.
Early and regular pregnancy management allows for the timely identification of potential risks to the mother and fetus, ensuring proper medical care and support throughout the pregnancy.
The main stages of pregnancy management
The main stages of pregnancy management include a number of important processes that guarantee the normal course of pregnancy and the health of both the mother and her child.
Preliminary consultation
Before planning a pregnancy, it is important to have a preliminary consultation with an obstetrician-gynecologist. This stage helps to assess a woman’s overall health, discuss her medical and family history, and identify possible risks that may affect pregnancy. The presence of chronic diseases, medications, habits and lifestyle factors that can interfere with the normal development of pregnancy are taken into account. Preparing for pregnancy will help avoid complications and ensure a healthy start for future motherhood.
Prenatal care and regular check-ups
Prenatal care is the basis for ensuring the health of a pregnant woman and the development of the fetus. After confirming the pregnancy, the obstetrician-gynecologist draws up a pregnancy management program that includes regular consultations and examinations. At each stage of pregnancy, it is important to monitor the condition of the mother and fetus. This includes monitoring the pregnant woman’s weight, measuring blood pressure, and examining urine and blood. The pregnancy management program includes regular ultrasound examinations, which allows for timely assessment of fetal development, checking the condition of the uterus, and identifying possible complications. If necessary, the doctor may prescribe additional examinations or procedures to monitor the health of the mother and fetus.
Preparing for childbirth
Preparation for childbirth is an important part of pregnancy management. It includes not only the physical preparation of the body, but also the psychological preparation of the expectant mother for the labor process. It is important for a pregnant woman to familiarize herself with the main stages of labor, learn about pain relief methods that can be used during childbirth, and discuss options for medical care if necessary. Clinics that specialize in pregnancy management often offer childbirth preparation courses where a woman can gain the necessary knowledge and skills. The obstetrician-gynecologist helps to draw up a birth plan that takes into account the individual needs and wishes of the patient. Psychological preparation for childbirth includes learning breathing and relaxation techniques that can significantly reduce stress and pain during labor.

For the convenience of the pregnant woman, the medical center has an expert who can, if necessary, explain unclear terms and requirements. This option makes sense if there are any factors aggravating the pregnancy that will require special tests and diagnostics.
Necessary documents and tests for registration of pregnancy management
For proper and effective pregnancy monitoring, it is important to register for pregnancy early, preferably between 6 and 12 weeks. Early consultation and registration of pregnancy allows you to detect possible fetal pathologies in time, provide assistance in case of atypical pregnancy or complications, and take the necessary corrective measures to maintain the health of the mother and fetus.
After the first visit, the obstetrician-gynecologist starts several important documents:
- An individual card for pregnant women and women in labor.
- Exchange card.
At the first appointment, the specialist collects important information, which includes:
- Anamnesis – A detailed health history of the woman, including previous pregnancies, childbirth, and possible chronic diseases.
- Results of obstetric examination – assessment of the uterus and the health of the pregnant woman.
- Filling out a pregnant woman’s questionnaire.
The pregnant woman’s questionnaire states:
- past illnesses;
- epidemic environment;
- medications taken and drug allergic reactions;
- surgical operations;
- information on the number of previous pregnancies, childbirths, and abortions;
- gynecological diseases;
- characteristics of the menstrual cycle.
The doctor conducts anthropometric measurements (height, weight), prescribes the necessary laboratory tests. At the IVMED Medical Center, the patient undergoes mandatory tests:
- general clinical;
- blood for biochemical testing;
- smears for microflora;
- for the presence of gynecological infections;
- for the presence of antibodies;
- determination of blood parameters (group and Rh factor, coagulation);
- markers of the threat of miscarriage and genetic diseases;
- three times during pregnancy, an ultrasound is performed.
These tests and examinations are important for ensuring a high level of pregnancy management and allow timely detection of possible complications or pathologies that may occur during pregnancy. Pregnancy management in Kyiv at the IVMED clinic is carried out in accordance with the most modern standards and technologies, which guarantees maximum comfort and safety for the woman and her child.
