Patient's question:
Last week I booked a 16-week prenatal check-up for tomorrow, but I didn't know if I need to fast for the 16-week prenatal check-up?Doctor's answer:
In the 16th week, it is recommended to go to the hospital on an empty stomach to decide on a thorough examination and book a Down syndrome screening. However, avoid unnecessary stress, and check for fetal movement as it appears. In terms of diet, avoid extremely cold foods, and pay attention to actively estimate the due date. Generally, prenatal check-ups should be carried out on schedule, so it is important to follow the arrangements. Wishing you good health.
