Patient's question:
When pregnant, a thorough check reveals abnormalities in the child, could it be mentally retarded, what are the causes?Doctor's answer:
Usually performed between the 18th and 20th weeks of early pregnancy, it can screen for fetal abnormalities because the organs of the fetus have fully developed at this stage, making it easier to detect abnormalities under ultrasound. However, some brain function or metabolic disorders may only be discovered after birth. The child is at risk of being threatened by intellectual disability, so family members must take the child to see a doctor immediately for treatment to prevent the use of blind medication to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is essential to closely monitor the child's condition and do their best to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
