Question
The hospital has conducted a Down syndrome screening and a detailed examination of the fetus, and it has been found that the fetus has chromosomal abnormalities. Now, faced with the dilemma of whether to have this child, I am inquiring about how to handle the situation of fetal chromosomal abnormalities.
Answer
For chromosomal abnormalities accompanied by fetal malformations, it is usually recommended to undergo an induced abortion. However, if the chromosomal abnormality does not affect the fetus, there is no need for special treatment, and one can focus on nurturing the pregnancy. Specific measures depend on the type of abnormality and its impact on the fetus. Maintaining a good lifestyle and increasing physical activity to enhance physical fitness and immunity are also very important.
