Laboratoire Ketterthill : supporting you every step
of the way through pregnancy
Are you expecting a baby ?
Congratulations !
We can assist you with tests throughout your pregnancy.
Expectant mothers often wonder about the biological tests that are requested by their doctor.
Why are tests carried out ? What are the risks for my unborn baby ? What do I need to do ?
You will find all the information on the tests that your obstetrician-gynaecologist may prescribe, as well as advice to help you have a healthy pregnancy.
This information does not, under any circumstances, serve as a replacement for a doctor, who remains the preferred contact for pregnant women.
Confirming my pregnancy with a blood test
The pregnancy test is a blood test for the beta-hCG hormone.
When should I take the test ? How can it be interpreted ?
Tests carried out during pregnancy
Which tests are usually carried out and why ?
Covid-19 and pregnancy
Although there is currently little information on the health risks of Covid-19 for the mother-to-be and the unborn baby, it seems prudent to consider pregnant women as a group potentially at risk from SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Nutrition during pregnancy
Pregnancy is the ideal time to adopt a healthy lifestyle
and a balanced diet.
