Patient's question:
Doctor, my wife has been pregnant for five months. Although my family does not discriminate between boys and girls, we want to know the gender of the baby in her womb to prepare for his birth. Can the gender determination be done through the Down syndrome screening?Doctor's answer:
The Down syndrome test is not a sex test. Even if it could be done, the doctor would not tell you. The screening for Down syndrome is mainly for checking, as the probability of the fetus having Down syndrome in the abdomen is. If it's just for the sake of his birth, he can buy yellow clothes, which can be worn by both boys and girls. Don't be too fixated on this. It is recommended to regularly visit the hospital for prenatal check-ups, and pay attention to diet in daily life as well.
