Can prenatal tests detect Fabry disease?

Patient's question:

Pregnant for four months, recently need to go for prenatal care and prepare to have my husband check carefully. News said there is a condition called G6PD deficiency during pregnancy. I want to ask if it can be detected during prenatal check-ups?

Doctor's answer:

Sickle cell anemia is mainly related to anemia, which can cause recurrent physical discomfort, stomach pain, and symptoms such as chills. At times, patients may also experience fever, all of which are caused by sickle cell anemia leading to these conditions. In the future, it may also cause urinary issues. The duration of the illness generally lasts for about a week, after which the symptoms may subside. It may also lead to complications. This disease primarily occurs more frequently during the ripening period of broad beans. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
