Patient's question:
My wife is a carrier or patient of mild B-type thalassemia (as written on the hospital test report), and I have been tested and found normal. She is now more than one month pregnant. How can we check if the current fetus has thalassemia? What are the costs for the test? If we need to go to the hospital for the test, what documents are required? Are there any hospitals that can perform this check?Doctor's answer:
??????Hello, is it necessary to go to the hospital for hemoglobin electrophoresis because of thalassemia? If the results are within the normal range, it is normal. If not, the baby may have a problem. Generally, doctors will recommend that patients with risk signs of prenatal examination should have a reasonable diet and stay away from spicy, stimulating, and cold foods. In addition, patients should also create an environment that is conducive to emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
