Patient's question:
At 8 weeks pregnant, I have a fetal heartbeat. A urine test for the ten items of prenatal screening showed positive for HSV-1 IgM at 11.7 AU/ml. Last week, I had some red bumps on my body, which are almost gone now. Will this affect the baby? Should I consider an early pregnancy termination? I asked several doctors, some said it's fine, while others said the chance of fetal infection is about 5%. Is there really a connection?Doctor's answer:
Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the return characters kept as they are:"You are proving that you were pregnant during this period or had this virus infection recently. Virus infection may cause fetal development malformations, but it doesn't necessarily mean it will definitely lead to fetal development issues. The probability is approximately 5%. Depending on your circumstances, if you really want to keep this precious baby, you can keep it and undergo regular prenatal examinations to closely monitor the situation. Additionally, it is best to have an amniocentesis during pregnancy and undergo various prenatal tests and screenings."
