Patient's question:
Alright, here it is translated into English:So, there are dogs at home again, and I'm also exposed to secondhand smoke a lot. So, should I get the Down syndrome screening done? Because the hospitals that offer this screening seem to be few and far between where I am. As for the clinic where I did my prenatal check-ups, I don't know if they offer it. I often see online that many people who get the screening come back high-risk and then need an amniocentesis. And amniocentesis is risky, you know. I really don't know if I should do the Down syndrome screening or not?
Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello! It is recommended that you choose week 18 for amniocentesis.Advice: Hello! If there is a high risk of Down syndrome, you can choose amniocentesis for a definitive diagnosis.
