Patient's question:
When I was less than two months pregnant, I went to the hospital for an X-ray examination. Now that I am less than three months pregnant, can I do a detailed screening for fetal abnormalities with the Down syndrome screening?Doctor's answer:
According to your symptoms, the Down syndrome screening is only a preliminary screening. It is a comprehensive evaluation based on the pregnant woman's age, gestational weight, and fetal size. Down syndrome screening is currently half price in this country, so there is no need for money. The main check is to see how the fetal chromosomes are abnormal. If the fetal malformation is caused by external force, the Down syndrome screening may not be able to detect it. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
