Information on preconception care

Preconception care refers to reviewing your daily living environment and managing your health in order to have a healthy baby.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the National Center for Child Health and Development publish information on preconception care.
Additionally, Inagi City provides subsidies for rubella antibody testing and vaccination costs.

In Tokyo, we hold the "TOKYO Preconception Seminar" to generate interest in preconception care, provide support for health checks before pregnancy and childbirth, and release educational videos.

You can check your current health status in preparation for future pregnancy and childbirth using the precon check sheet (for men and women) created by the National Center for Child Health and Development.

Rubella can cause congenital abnormalities in the unborn baby (congenital rubella syndrome) if a pregnant woman is infected. The city provides subsidies for rubella antibody tests and vaccination costs.
