Patient's question:
7 months of blood tests showed anemia. At Shenzhen Children's Hospital, a thalassemia screening was conducted, showing a hemoglobin F value of 2.80.Doctor's answer:
Hello, as you mentioned, generally, if both spouses are screened and found not to carry the thalassemia gene, their child will not inherit the thalassemia gene. Thalassemia is a hereditary disease. If both partners are tested and do not carry the thalassemia gene, their offspring will not carry the thalassemia gene.There are many causes that can lead to childhood blood diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a blood disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to let their child develop picky eating habits and maintain a balanced diet.
