Pre-marital Health Screen (Check-up)

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Need some advise, I am settling down soon, and before that, planning to have some medical checkup with FH, any recommendation on:

1. What type of checkup? Blood, fertility, etc?

2. Where is the good clinic for this and roughly the cost?

Heard before that the guys also went to have their sperm check, is it true? Where they do this? :rolleyes:

monkeyn, i suggest you take blood test in BP lab or Gribbles. You also need to do Gynae check-up in woman specialist clinic or hospital. I am doing my gynae check in Pantai Bangsar. RM160 for Breast Examination, Pap Smear and Ultrasound, on lower pelvic. All this will be conducted by the Doctor while giving you consultation. ***Please dont go when you having period.***

Blood test they will recommend you. Try to add Talassaemia for both of you and G6PD.

Well guys can do urine test lor. Maybe go ultrasound abdomen to see if Kidney, Liver, Pancreas is all healthy. They can also do Resting ECG to check if heart is ok. If your hubby is drinker or smoker the lab will recommend 1.

I just went BP lab to do loads of examination. Paid RM250 for package:-

Blood Test

Urine Test

Ultrasound Abdomen

Bone Density

Lung Function Test

Resting ECG

Add: G6PD, HIV, and Cancer Marker into the package: RM90

They say no need do Talasaemia as Blood Test can show if you require Talasaemia Testing.

Urm...you could check for genetic disorders (anaemia, thalassemia (sp), etc), rhesus type, Hep vaccinations, etc...

For me, mine was more like a very detailed normal medical check - cholesterol, blood work, cancer markers, etc...

gals,

I just called pathlab. The receptionist suggest I go for full body checkup (18SK), RM180, and not the pre-marital cheaup, RM160. The reason being there are more tests (41tests) covered by the 18SK plan, and only a few test in premarital. if we would like to do Thalassaemie, we have to add RM100 for it..

I am still debating over this matter, dunno which one to go to...RM180 is quite pricey compare to normal clinic price right?

Dear all,

if I am not too late, and if you guys have not done the checkup yet, you can try BP heathcare. I just called their Subang Jaya branch and found the package price super affordable. For e.g full blood and urine tests is RM109, pathlab is RM180. Premarital is RM70, pathlab is RM160!! so much different in the price. You can check their services here @http://www.bphealthcare.com/bphealth/brochures/brochures.html. I compared the tests, not much different, afterall, it is just blood test. I cant figure out why pathlab is charging so much higher. The BP lady told me this promotion is last till year end. And dont forget you have to fast for 12 hours before any test! Walk in will do, no appointment needed!!

Hope this helps.
