Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. May I eat something before the Down syndrome screening?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's best not to eat. The Down syndrome screening is a method that involves drawing pregnant women's blood serum to detect the concentration of alpha-fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin in the mother's serum, and then calculating the risk coefficient of giving birth to a Down syndrome child by combining the pregnant woman's due date, age, weight, and gestational age at the time of blood collection.When preparing for pregnancy, pay attention to the following points: pre-pregnancy health care and daily lifestyle habits. Women preparing for pregnancy can take folic acid supplements to provide nutrients and promote follicular development. Men preparing for pregnancy should take some Yuzhiyuan chewable tablets to supplement protein zinc, protein selenium, and protein. The protein zinc, protein selenium, and protein in Yuzhiyuan are an excellent combination for men preparing for pregnancy. Daily life requires attention—avoid spicy and greasy foods, quit smoking and drinking. Exercise more and avoid sitting for long periods!
