Amniocentesis to check fetal development?

Patient's question:

Pregnancy, the doctor recommended amniocentesis.

Doctor's answer:

1. Abstinence from sexual activity is required for three days before surgery; please shower the day before surgery; please empty your bladder completely 10 minutes before surgery.
2. If you have a cold, fever, skin infection, or other abnormalities within 3 to 7 days before surgery, please inform the doctor during preoperative registration.
3. If you have a history of allergies, special medical conditions, or other situations requiring attention, please inform the doctor during preoperative registration.
4. You must rest quietly for at least 2 hours after surgery before you can take a taxi home; out-of-town patients are advised to stay in the city that night.
5. Do not shower or engage in physical labor for 24 hours after surgery; minimize movement as much as possible.
6. Abstinence from sexual activity is required for half a month after surgery.
7. If you experience symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, vaginal discharge, bleeding, or fever after surgery, please go to the gynecology and obstetrics department of the hospital immediately.
