Three practical points

  1. Contact your local health center or chosen maternity provider to arrange care.
  2. Bring your last menstrual-period date if known, previous pregnancy details and current medicines.
  3. Write down questions about tests, appointments, costs and how to contact the team between visits.

In the Philippines, contact your usual health center, pharmacist or appropriate clinician for individual advice. Service availability and fees vary; ask the provider directly.
