Patient's question:
At eight weeks of pregnancy, the embryonic union and fetal heartbeat could not be detected through careful examination. Both times, another careful examination was conducted two weeks later, but the results were the same. The doctor diagnosed it as fetal demise. What tests should be conducted after fetal demise?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you first undergo a professional and thorough examination to identify the causes of recurrent miscarriage, such as autoimmune factors, hereditary factors, infectious factors, endocrine factors, anatomical factors, and poor male semen quality. You need to seek timely treatment and prepare for pregnancy under the guidance of a doctor. The necessary examination items include: 1. Male sperm motility and morphology examination; 2. Female preconception screening (four or six items); 3. Autoimmune tests for anti-sperm antibodies, anti-endometrial antibodies, anti-human chorionic gonadotropin antibodies, and anti-cardiolipin antibodies; 4. Routine screening for trichomoniasis, fungal infections, mycoplasma, chlamydia, and vaginal discharge/vaginitis. Additionally, both male and female chromosomal examinations are required. It is advisable to maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and greasy foods to prevent their adverse effects.
