I'm 8 months pregnant. I got a referral from the gynecologist who is responsible for my pregnancy, which I have to do after the 35th week of pregnancy. Are these tests really mandatory? I practically did not get a referral to the tests I need to go to the hospital. What should I do in this situation? Especially since all the basic research is fine for me. The tests that the doctor recommended to me, threatening that I could be punished for not doing them, are vaginal swabs, bacteriology + mycology, urethral smear for Neisseria, Mycoplasma hominis, vaginal smear for chlamydia antigen, rectal and vaginal smear in towards group B streptococci.
The tests recommended during pregnancy include vaginal cleanliness and Streptococcus agalactiae testing. These tests are worth doing because they are important to your baby. The other tests mentioned by you are performed only when needed. There is no pen alty for the patient if he does not perform any tests.
