In this episode, my friend Marta and I went over some important topics related to OBGYN.

Here are the questions we go over!

1. Let’s talk about preconception visits, are they necessary, what exactly does one entail?
2. Genetic screening tests, pros, cons, how invasive, what does it tell you?
3. High risk pregnancies-why you do NST’s, what else do you do during a high risk pregnancy?
4. Inductions-pros and cons?
5. How are OB’s trained, what kind of places do you all work?
6. How do you find a provider who you can trust?
