Patient's question:
Can amniocentesis be performed? The previous child was aborted because both of us have thalassemia, so the child was a severe thalassemia patient. Now, because we want to minimize harm to the mother and want to perform amniocentesis at the best time, can we choose induced abortion?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello, amniocentesis for prenatal diagnosis is typically performed between weeks 16 and 22 of pregnancy.Advice: You are only two months along now, which is a bit early. Wait until the appropriate time to have it done. Best wishes.
Generally, doctors recommend that women with risk factors for amniocentesis maintain a balanced diet, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, as well as cold foods. Additionally, patients should also pay attention to creating a comfortable environment, which is beneficial for rest. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
