Patient's question:
Our child also has difficulty concentrating and is developmentally delayed, with low intelligence. What could be the cause of the low intelligence?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons and diseases that can lead to intellectual disability in fetuses, such as hypothyroidism, Down syndrome, and fetal aspiration during labor. Therefore, it is important to undergo screening tests like the T and other anomaly checks during the 4th month of pregnancy. If the baby is born prematurely, it is necessary to conduct screening for congenital hypothyroidism. In case of severe aspiration during labor, early intervention measures should be taken. In addition to medication for intellectual disability, patients also need to focus on care aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to ensure a good therapeutic outcome.
