What should men check before marriage?

Nowadays, for the sake of their own health and to be responsible to their partners in the future, many people have started to have physical examinations before marriage to ensure that there are no problems with their bodies. There are many items in the premarital examination, and both men and women can undergo certain examinations, and the examination items are also different for men and women. Below, we will introduce in detail the specific items of the premarital examination.

1. Full body examination

What kind of check-up should a man undergo before marriage? The first thing is a full-body check-up. By drawing blood, we can understand whether there are any abnormalities in the male's heart, lungs, liver, kidneys and other important organs, as well as understand the development of the body. A full-body check-up can also detect some diseases that affect marriage and fertility.

2. Genital examination

Male genital examination is a very important part of the premarital check-up. Although some men are reluctant to do it, this examination has many benefits. Doctors mainly check whether the penis, testicles and other genital organs have inflammation or genital dysplasia. If the examination shows any abnormality, the doctor will use professional knowledge to recommend further examination and guidance.

Auxiliary examinations are a must-do for male premarital checkups. The results of routine blood tests, urine tests, hepatitis B surface antigen, rapid transaminase and rapid plasma renin ring card tests for syphilis screening are used to determine whether a man is carrying a sexually transmitted disease or a common infectious disease. Some medical and family histories will be inquired about, and physical and routine laboratory tests will be performed. Other auxiliary tests will be selected based on the results of the tests, such as chromosome karyotype analysis, hormone testing, biopsy pathology, B-ultrasound, etc.

2. The significance of premarital examination

First, it is beneficial to the health of both parties and the next generation. Through a comprehensive pre-marital physical examination, some abnormal conditions and diseases can be discovered, so as to achieve the purpose of early diagnosis and active treatment. If a disease that will have a temporary or permanent impact on marriage or childbearing is found during the physical examination, decisions and arrangements that are beneficial to the health of both parties and the next generation can be made under the guidance of a doctor.

Second, it is conducive to eugenics and improving the quality of the nation. By asking about family history, investigating family lines, analyzing family trees, and combining them with physical examination results, doctors can make a clear diagnosis of certain genetic defects and, based on their transmission patterns, deduce the risk of "affecting the eugenics of the next generation," thereby helping married couples make marriage and childbearing decisions to reduce or avoid inappropriate marriages and the birth of children with genetic diseases.

Fourth, premarital check-up is not just a health check-up, but more importantly, it is to spread knowledge about marriage and childbearing health to people and provide guidance on healthy marriage and childbearing. For example, medical and health institutions will play promotional videos on premarital medical and health knowledge and postmarital family planning to prospective newlyweds, distribute promotional materials, and provide relevant consultation and guidance.
