Does aneuploidy screening affect polyhydramnios?

Patient's question:

Today I went to the hospital for a 6D ultrasound screening. Everything else was normal, except that the amniotic fluid index was 24.72 cm. My glucose screening and glucose tolerance test were both normal. What should I do in this situation? Is it serious?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, the baby is generally developing well, but the amniotic fluid index is a bit high. The normal range is 8-18 centimeters, and there's nothing that can be done if there's too much amniotic fluid. Regular prenatal check-ups and monitoring are recommended. Generally, doctors will advise women with risk signs during prenatal examinations to rest in bed and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should also create an environment that promotes emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
