Patient's question:
I am planning to do the Down syndrome screening tomorrow, but unfortunately, I have some cold symptoms today and am afraid that the cold might interfere with the screening results. Can I still do the Down syndrome screening with a cold?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described. If you just have a cold, you can do the normal Down syndrome screening, which is not a problem. It should be considered that doing the Down syndrome screening during a cold will never interfere with the normal test results, so you can rest assured. Go to the hospital for a thorough examination to completely eliminate your anxiety. It is recommended that during pregnancy, you should maintain a balanced diet and eat appropriate foods. Eat more vegetables and drink plenty of water. Go to the hospital for regular check-ups and keep a good mood to prevent colds. Doing this test during a cold will never interfere with the test results. Wish you good health and a happy life.
