Do you need to fast for prenatal examinations?

Patient's question:

Tomorrow I am going to do this thing, but I don't know what to pay attention to. Is there a need for fasting for the NT prenatal examination?

Doctor's answer:

NT prenatal examination includes a detailed fetal anomaly scan, which is performed using 4D color Doppler ultrasound to assess the fetal growth and development and identify any abnormalities. It does not require fasting or holding urine; simply rest well as usual. Generally, an appointment is needed, so it is recommended to prepare in advance. Timely prenatal care and each examination are important. Rest more, avoid overexertion, and avoid strenuous exercise.
