Is it important to have drunk beer before pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I might be pregnant, but before I knew I was pregnant, I drank beer and got drunk. Also, I haven't had a pre-pregnancy test yet. What should I do??

Doctor's answer:

If you only drink beer once, it should not be a problem. If you have been drinking for a long time, then it cannot be said that there is no problem. If you are concerned about the impact on the child, I suggest you consult and get checked regularly at your local prenatal and reproductive health clinic. This situation requires strict prenatal check-ups, including a Down syndrome screening between weeks 14-19 of pregnancy, a 4D ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening between weeks 22-26, and if necessary, an amniocentesis and cord blood analysis between weeks 16-20. This can help determine the baby's development inside the womb. It is recommended to keep the baby and undergo regular prenatal examinations. If any abnormalities are found in the baby, the pregnancy should be terminated promptly.
