Patient's question:
Please ask the expert whether it is better to do the five pre-natal tests before pregnancy or after pregnancy?????Doctor's answer:
Hello, you are already in a pregnant condition. Generally, there is no need to do the five tests for prenatal care! You can go to the hospital between the 16th and 22nd weeks of pregnancy to do a Down syndrome screening to check the condition of the fetus's nervous system!Suggestions: Down syndrome screening is a method that involves drawing the pregnant woman's blood to detect the concentration of alpha-fetoprotein and human chorionic gonadotropin in the maternal serum. It then calculates the risk coefficient of giving birth to a child with Down syndrome by combining the pregnant woman's due date, age, weight, and gestational age at the time of blood collection.
