(詳細はUS prenatal care. ''Pre-conception counseling'' is a meeting with a health-care professional (generally a physician) by a woman ''before'' attempting to become pregnant. It generally includes a ''pre-conception risk assessment'' for any potential complications of pregnancy. ==Obstacles to pre-conception counseling in the United States== Obstacles to pre-conception counseling in the United States include: *It is too late in unintended pregnancies. The rate of Unintended pregnancy in the United States is approximately 49%. Half of unintended pregnancies result from not using birth control, and 45% of them from using birth control inconsistently or incorrectly. *Women not knowing, realizing, or understanding the benefits of visiting their physician before trying to become pregnant. *Another common obstacle to pre-conception counseling and assessment may be the lack of health insurance. However, most insurances will cover this as a screening visit. Also, many physicians will do the pre-conception screening during a regular office visit or gynecological visit if the woman just informs the doctor of her desire to become pregnant. Most gynecologists will inquire about child-bearing intentions anyway. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pre-conception counseling in the United States」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
