MBBS, DGOThe frequency of sonograms recommended during pregnancy depends on several factors, including the maternal health, the pregnancy, and the presence of any risk factors. In most cases, at least one ultrasound is recommended to confirm the pregnancy and to determine the gestational age. Sonograms may also be recommended to monitor growth and development of fetus, finding out complications, and checking for fetal abnormalities.
Your doctor will determine the number of ultrasounds based on your individual needs. They will explain need of each recommended sonogram. Regular sonograms or ultrasounds help in monitoring the baby’s development and ensure a healthy pregnancy.
