Patient's question:
My grandmother had an accident when she was young. Because the family didn't have enough money to treat her, she developed dwarfism later. My husband is 170 cm tall, and I am 162 cm tall. I want to know if my baby will inherit the genetic condition if I get pregnant.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Considering your situation, it is likely a case of general dwarfism. As long as both parents are normal, it will never be inherited across generations. Don't worry. It is recommended to pay attention to rest during pregnancy, avoid overtime work, and eat more nutritious foods such as eggs, dairy products, and lean meat. Additionally, folic acid supplements should be taken.Furthermore, during the treatment for dwarfism, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries. I hope the above answers can help you. Thank you.
