Patient's question:
Please describe your onset time and main symptoms as detailed as possible. The doctor will provide a detailed response based on your description.Doctor's answer:
Fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) has two types: one is called malnutrition type, and the other is called incomplete development type. In the malnutrition type, the embryo's development is normal, but its weight is significantly lower than that of normal newborns of the same gestational age. In contrast, the incomplete development type affects the embryo early in pregnancy, causing damage to it and thus impairing fetal growth and development. Children with the incomplete development type have a high incidence of congenital malformations, often with chromosomal numerical or structural abnormalities, some of which can be life-threatening. It is recommended that children with IUGR are not just underweight, but may have malformations. It is best to have hospital examinations and, if necessary, terminate the pregnancy.
