What should be noted when there is hydronephrosis of the fetus?

Patient's question:

During pregnancy, it's always particularly uncomfortable, and morning sickness is also very severe. What should be noted when there is pelvi-ureteric junction (PUJ) dilation in the fetus?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally, if the separation of the renal collecting system is no more than 12mm in the late stage of pregnancy, it is considered normal. The current condition is within the normal range, and regular follow-up is recommended. If it exceeds the normal value, an amniocentesis test may be required, and induction of labor may be necessary if needed.
Generally, doctors will advise women with signs of genetic risks to pay attention to keeping warm and avoid coldness. Additionally, patients should create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
