When can't amniocentesis be performed

Patient's question:

In my complete blood count test, the white blood cell count is 3.14 and the platelet count is 55. Can experts advise if it is possible to undergo amniocentesis in this condition?

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: Hello, your current condition is not suitable for amniocentesis. Because your blood test shows low white blood cells and low platelets. If you undergo amniocentesis, it may cause infection and bleeding.
Suggestions: It is recommended that you first undergo anti-inflammatory treatment and platelet transfusion to correct the blood issues in your body. It is best to identify the cause of the above condition for targeted treatment before proceeding with the puncture test. Additionally, continue with anti-inflammatory treatment and platelet transfusion during the puncture procedure.
