Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 25 years old this year, and I am already 3 months pregnant. I am told that after getting pregnant, I need to undergo a series of detailed examinations. I would like to know what specific tests should be done? Besides the Down syndrome screening, when should it be done? Besides, what problems should I pay attention to now? As a first-time pregnancy, I have little experience and many things I don't understand.Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy, it is necessary to have relevant and careful examinations based on the time of pregnancy. For example, at 16 weeks and 18 weeks, you can have the Down syndrome screening, and at 22 weeks and 24 weeks, you can have the fetal anomaly examination. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can do various examinations periodically. During pregnancy, you should also maintain a good mood, engage in appropriate activities, have a proper diet, and appropriately enhance nutrition, enjoying the physiological needs of your body.
