Is it necessary to do the Down syndrome screening? How accurate is it?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally you can do an early pregnancy test around day 35 of your missed period or have a blood HCG test 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After pregnancy, it's important to rest and maintain proper nutrition, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and regularly undergo prenatal check-ups such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening.
