Healthy pregnant women can, in general, travel safely even to exotic destinations. Vaccines, medication and insurance coverage should be considered in advance. Chronic disease or pregnancy complications call for medical consultation beforehand. In advanced pregnancy, travel is restricted by commercial airlines. Low molecular weight heparin may be used to prevent deep vein thrombosis in risk groups during long flights. If travel to malaria areas cannot be avoided, chemoprophylaxis must be taken. The need for vaccinations must be assessed individually, according to risks. Killed vaccines are considered safe; live attenuated preparations are not recommended.
一般来说，健康的孕妇即使前往异国他乡旅行也通常是安全的。应提前考虑疫苗、药物和保险覆盖范围。患有慢性病或有妊娠并发症的孕妇需要事先咨询医生。妊娠晚期，商业航空公司会限制出行。对于高危人群，在长途飞行期间可使用低分子量肝素预防深静脉血栓形成。如果无法避免前往疟疾流行地区，必须进行化学预防。必须根据风险对疫苗接种需求进行个体化评估。灭活疫苗被认为是安全的；不建议使用减毒活疫苗。
