Checkups

How long before the wedding should I have the checkup? Gynecologist in Seoul, Korea

The short answer

Ideally 3–6 months before the wedding or before you plan to conceive. That leaves time to treat any infections, complete a rubella vaccination if you are not immune (pregnancy should be avoided for a short time afterward), and repeat tests if needed.

Book on a day when you are not on your period, and check whether fasting is needed. See pre-marital checkup and best time in your cycle.
