The goal is not to look for flaws, but to identify each partner&#8217;s health conditions early on so that any necessary care can be planned together.<\/p>\n<p>Screening generally includes a physical examination, a complete blood count, blood type and rhesus factor, blood sugar, and screening for infections such as hepatitis B, syphilis, and HIV. Your doctor may also recommend thalassemia screening, especially if there is a family history, because this condition can be passed on to children.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond laboratory tests, a premarital consultation is an opportunity to discuss family medical history, immunization status, and plans for having children. If needed, the doctor will recommend certain vaccinations before marriage.<\/p>\n<p>Ideally, screening should be done three to six months before the wedding day to allow enough time for follow-up. Discuss the appropriate tests with a general practitioner or an obstetrician-gynecologist at your nearest healthcare facility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Premarital screening helps couples understand their health conditions from the start, so they can plan their family with greater peace of mind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":90,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_dps_reviewed_by":"","_dps_reviewed_by_url":"","_dps_reviewed_by_new_tab":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sex-relationships"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/90"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stg.dokterin.co.id\/artikel\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
