Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How can I check if the fetus has Down syndrome?Doctor's answer:
A prenatal screening test called the Down syndrome screening involves drawing a pregnant woman's blood to measure the levels of alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin, and free estriol in the maternal serum. By combining this with the pregnant woman's due date, weight, age, and gestational age at the time of blood collection, it calculates the risk factor for giving birth to a child with congenital defects. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a gynecological examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. It is also important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
