Question
A 23-week pregnant woman discovers a microduplication on the fetus’s chromosome 9 and wants to know if there are similar cases and understand the current condition of the fetus.
Answer
Regardless of your chromosomal translocation situation, you can undergo artificial insemination, but artificial insemination cannot solve problems such as miscarriage, stillbirth, fetal death, and unhealthy fetus caused by chromosomal translocation. If you hope for a child to be completely normal, you can only consider undergoing three-generation in vitro fertilization. If one party has a chromosome 9 inversion that matches the fetus’s condition, there is no big problem; if not, further judgment is needed based on the inversion interval. Most chromosome 9 inversions are normal variations, please be patient for the final results!
