Patient's question:
Hello! Please help me check if this result could lead to a child with severe thalassemia. My hemoglobin electrophoresis results are HBA 92.1, HBF 2.6, HBA25.3, G6PD/6PGD 1.8. Thalassemia screening is 78%. My husband's hemoglobin electrophoresis results are HBA+F64, HBE 36, G6PD/6PGD 1.7. Thalassemia screening is 90%. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello, the test results suggest a possibility of mild thalassemia. If you are pregnant, it is recommended to undergo screening or amniocentesis for further evaluation. There are many triggers for genetic counseling, and patients need timely symptomatic treatment. It is advisable to seek treatment at a top-tier hospital for your condition. Pay attention to the progression of your illness and avoid indiscriminate treatment. Additionally, focus on self-care in your daily life, ensuring a healthy routine. Best wishes for your recovery!
