When should a pregnant woman have a 4D ultrasound?

Patient's question:

A 23-year-old woman knows she has discomfort in her body, but she hasn't gone to see a doctor yet. Please ask: At what month of pregnancy is it best to have a 4D ultrasound?

Doctor's answer:

A four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound is best performed around the 6th to 7th month of pregnancy (with 4 weeks as one month), which is approximately 22-28 weeks. At this stage, the fetal structure is already well-formed, the size of the fetus and the amniotic fluid are relatively balanced, there is ample space for movement inside the uterus, and the bone echoes are also smaller, resulting in clearer images.
After that, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to keep a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
