Patient's question:
At 37 weeks, the Doppler ultrasound yesterday showed a biparietal diameter of only 8.5 cm and a head circumference of 33 cm, with the femur length measuring 7.2 cm. The doctor mentioned that the baby's head is slightly deformed due to being pushed around. What should I do? Will it be okay after birth?Doctor's answer:
The patient's condition is absolutely not something to worry about. According to the MRI report you provided, everything is completely normal. The so-called "pushing" is mainly due to the baby's good growth and development, making the head relatively large and pressing closely against the uterus. After birth, it will immediately surpass normal conditions. Therefore, there is no need for the patient to take any action at this time. This explanation has been provided to the patient.
