Good pregnancy care

Planning a family is an exciting time for prospective parents, and just like setting up a nursery or sorting out your finances, ensuring your body is as healthy as possible is an important step in the process.

A few months before you become pregnant it’s a good idea to check on things such as your iron and thyroid levels, that your vaccinations are up to date and that you don’t have any viruses or bacteria that could harm your baby.

We offer a blood test that checks your body is as healthy as it can be to start a family and we can help with referrals to an obstetrician, discussion about your diet and/or folic acid supplements.

Pre-pregnancy tests are an important part of your pregnancy planning and care and help make sure that you and your baby are healthy throughout your pregnancy journey.

How does it work?

InstantScripts is Australia’s leading online health clinic. We offer a pregnancy planning test which involves a blood test and is issued by one of our Australian-registered doctors. If it is approved by one of our doctors, the pathology form will be emailed to you. You then take this to your nearest pathology collection centre.

Once we receive the results, usually within a few days, we will email them to you. If there is anything abnormal, we will contact you for a follow-up consultation to walk you through the results and help identify recommended actions. You can also then take your results to your doctor.
