Risk Assessment

When your health care provider does a fetal risk assessment, he or she will ask you many questions about your medical, family, and pregnancy history. You will also have a physical exam. The information helps your provider know what problems, if any, may occur during your pregnancy. Your provider can then plan the care that you will probably need during the pregnancy.

It is best to have a risk assessment before you get pregnant. It may also be done at the first checkup of your pregnancy. There are different risk factors depending on your age, ethnic background, family history, job, where you live, and so on. If certain risks are found, there may be things you can do to reduce the risks.
