Patient's question:
One of my close friends had a miscarriage at 12 weeks of pregnancy and underwent a D&C procedure at the hospital. The test results indicated a trisomy 16 result from the FISH test. The doctor simply told her that it was due to chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo and didn't say anything more when she asked further questions. My friend is very worried about experiencing the same situation in future pregnancies.Doctor's answer:
Hello. If there is a missed miscarriage, then this is a must-check. The causes of fetal autosomal trisomy are related to: environment, radiation, and mitotic abnormalities! Couples need to go to the hospital for a routine chromosome test! It is necessary to do pre-pregnancy and prenatal examinations! Around 14 weeks of pregnancy, a Down syndrome screening is required, and if necessary, an amniocentesis test needs to be done!
