Patient's question:
Your friend's body naturally has a genetic predisposition to G6PD deficiency. During pregnancy, she took many medications to prevent the fetus from developing jaundice due to G6PD deficiency. After birth, she also had mild jaundice, but it was treated and she has fully recovered.Do children with G6PD deficiency experience recurring jaundice?
Doctor's answer:
Sickle cell disease is generally never a recurring neonatal jaundice. Due to varying individual conditions and medications and treatments used during pregnancy, newborns may have different degrees of jaundice after birth. Through preliminary prevention, treatment, and follow-up treatment, there will be a good and thorough recovery. In Houjie, pay attention to the mother not touching broad beans and products containing broad beans to avoid recurrence. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
