During pregnancy, in order to understand the development and changes of the fetus at each stage, as well as the physical condition of the pregnant woman, many examinations are needed. And among the many examinations, one is prenatal systematic examination. Many pregnant women are not clear about what these examinations are, so now let's introduce to pregnant women what prenatal systematic examination is for the fetus?
Prenatal system examination of the fetus is conducted through color ultrasound to rule out any abnormalities in the fetus, such as fetal malposition, intrauterine thrombosis, etc. This ultrasound examination is more detailed than usual and can rule out abnormalities. This examination needs to be done twice. The first one is usually conducted within 22-24 weeks of pregnancy, mainly to check the development of the fetus. If there are abnormalities in the fetus, other related examinations need to be conducted.
At 20-30 weeks of pregnancy, pregnant women need to go to the hospital for a second prenatal examination. The second prenatal examination is mainly to see the parts that were not clearly seen during the initial examination, and to further understand the development of the placenta, amniotic fluid, and fetus. It can also determine the size of the fetus, placental maturity, etc.
Prenatal system examinations can detect fetal abnormalities, so pregnant women must cooperate with doctors to perform these examinations. If there are abnormalities in the examination results, pregnant women should not be too anxious and can undergo follow-up examinations.
