Is it necessary to have the Down syndrome screening? Is the accuracy rate high?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is it necessary to do the Down syndrome screening? Is it accurate?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally you can do an early pregnancy test around day 35 of your missed period or have a blood HCG test 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After pregnancy, it's important to rest and maintain good nutrition, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Regular prenatal check-ups, such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening, should be done. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's life but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it's best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, you should drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
