Patient's question:
Today, after a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found that the fetus has an abnormality in its sex chromosomes. This baby was also hard to conceive after a year of trying to get pregnant. I want to preserve it. Doctor, what are the manifestations of fetal chromosomal abnormalities?Doctor's answer:
Fetal chromosomal abnormalities, during pregnancy, the pregnant woman may not show any obvious clinical symptoms, but for the fetus, it can manifest as abnormal results in Down syndrome screening, non-invasive DNA testing, or amniocentesis. Fetal system ultrasound may detect some organ malformations or defects. According to your explanation, if there is a confirmed fetal chromosomal abnormality, it is not advisable to focus on early pregnancy. Otherwise, the newborn may face issues such as hermaphroditism, male feminization, or female masculinization. It is recommended to consult the hereditary genetics outpatient clinic for follow-up.
