Question
Hey everyone, my friend has always wanted a child, and finally got pregnant recently. However, she went for a Down syndrome screening yesterday and said the result was high risk. She’s usually pretty careful with her luck, but she doesn’t know why this turned out to be a high-risk situation. What could this be caused by, according to the doctor?
Answer
High-risk Down syndrome screenings must be followed by further examination. It’s advisable to consult with a gynecologist. During pregnancy, regular checks at the obstetrics department are necessary, along with consuming more protein-rich foods, fresh vegetables and fruits, and avoiding cold and spicy foods. Eat more lean meat, eggs, fish, etc. Pay attention to personal hygiene during pregnancy; change your underwear daily. Wash the external genitals with warm water every night. Regular hospital checks during pregnancy can help.
