Patient's question:
The baby is now one year old, and the basic condition is still quite normal. The intellectual and physical development is also normal, but I still have some worries because there is still a possibility of suffering from Down syndrome. I'm sad that my daughter might have an IQ twist. How can I prevent Down syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Down syndrome is a congenital disease that can cause abnormal brain development and physical abnormalities in babies. In clinical diagnosis, there are no special methods to prevent it, so prenatal screening of the fetus is necessary during pregnancy. If a high-risk condition is detected, further diagnosis is required. If the diagnosis confirms Down syndrome, early pregnancy can be terminated to prevent the birth of a malformed child. Generally, babies are born healthy, and it is rare for them to have Down syndrome. Parents do not need to worry too much.
