Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Nothing as such.
No tests required as such.
If you get pregnant, you will have to undergo certain tests at regular intervals which will be suggested by your gynaecologist.
Also, you need to take care of your diet.
You will have to take care of your Haemoglobin levels.
Best regards.
