On February 2024, the MOH Scientific and Practical Council of the Ministry of Health approved a new version of the Normal Pregnancy Clinical Guidelines. A Pregravid Preparation section was added to the Guidelines. This event of utmost importance will provide development of a pre-pregnancy examination program based on the document. Other sections of the Guidelines were slightly amended. In particular, gestational age calculation approaches were modified; some testings were excluded from the pregnancy examination (the recommendations no longer include a coagulogram) but others, on the contrary, were added. New recommendations have appeared for referrals to specialists. Every pregnant woman must now visit a perinatal psychologist twice during pregnancy. In the third trimester, a mandatory ultrasound examination has reappeared, but the timing has shifted to 34–36 weeks. Changes have been made to the indications for prescribing vitamins. Clarifications have also been added to the "Vaccination" section. In our paper, we will analyze the document amendments and discuss their significance.
Keywords: pregravid preparation, normal pregnancy, VTEC, screening, US, prevention, cervix, premature birth, prenatal screening.
