Patient's question:
My son doesn't talk much, sometimes he falls while walking, and he has low intelligence. My son is already five years old this year. What are the reasons that can cause low intelligence in a fetus?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons and diseases that can lead to fetal intellectual disability, such as hypothyroidism, Down syndrome, and fetal aspiration during labor. Therefore, it is important to undergo screening tests like the Down syndrome screening and thorough anomaly checks during the fourth month of pregnancy. If the baby is severely aspirated during labor, early intervention measures should be taken. In addition to standard treatment for intellectual disability, patients also need to pay attention to their diet, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also be mindful of choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
