1/8 Prior to marriage...

2/8 What tests should the bride and groom undergo before marriage to ensure a family life free of "surprises" and stress? Few people realize that infectious diseases can be contracted from their life partner. To prevent this, future spouses must undergo a medical examination.

3/8 By law, individuals entering into marriage must undergo medical examinations for mental health, drug addiction, sexually transmitted diseases, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS.

4/8 Why do newlyweds need health diagnostics?

5/8 Many diseases can be asymptomatic, and diagnostics will help not only detect them in time but also treat them at an early stage. It is not uncommon for a man to have asymptomatic syphilis, which can ultimately lead to an unfavorable pregnancy outcome for his wife.

6/8 Such a situation can negatively affect the couple's family life and potentially lead to the dissolution of the marriage.

7/8 A blood test will help determine Rh factor of future spouses. This information will enable them to plan their family more consciously, as certain conditions (such as a wife with - blood factor and a husband with +) can make pregnancy risky and necessitate special attention.

8/8 Genetic tests can also be beneficial. There are genetic diseases that can be passed down through generations, or women may unknowingly be carriers. These tests will help identify potential problems.
