How to do Down syndrome screening

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How can I do the Down syndrome screening?

Doctor's answer:

Down syndrome screening should be done between the 11th and 21st weeks of pregnancy. The best time for the test is between 11 and 13 weeks, when the accuracy rate is relatively high. For Down syndrome screening, you need to go to the hospital on an empty stomach. The test mainly involves blood tests, and an ultrasound examination is also required. The test results are usually available about a week later.
Treatment should be based on symptoms, and surgical removal combined with anti-inflammatory medication is recommended. The diet should be light, avoiding spicy, greasy, and irritating foods. Hygiene should be maintained, and a positive mood should be kept.
