I'm really worried because I got my test results back and it says my baby might have Trisomy 21 and it's classified as a high risk. Can you help me understand what this means for my baby? What steps should I take next? I'm feeling really anxious about this situation.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A Trisomy 21 positive result with high risk indicates a strong likelihood of Down syndrome in your baby, which can affect physical and intellectual development; consult your doctor or a genetic counselor to discuss the results, understand the risks, and consider further testing options, such as amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling, to confirm the diagnosis, and prepare for potential outcomes.

View allI'm really worried because I have a white liquid discharge coming from one of my breasts when I squeeze my nipple, but it's not happening in my other breast. The fact that it's only on one side is making me anxious. I've been dealing with a viral fever for a week and have been taking different tablets, but nothing seems to help much. Could the discharge be a side effect of the medications? I've also been constipated for four days. I'm really concerned about whether this could be cancer. My breasts have always been a bit hard and small, unlike others, but they've been that way for as long as I can remember. Can you help me understand what's going on and if I should be worried about cancer or something else?

OR my hemoglobin is 9.1 and i have fibroid surgery scheduled in a week is that level safe? how can i boost it quickly? OR will a hemoglobin of 9.1 cause issues for my upcoming fibroid surgery? need tips to raise it fast
A hemoglobin level of 9.1 might be too low for a planned fibroid surgery next week. It's generally considered safe to have a hemoglobin level of at least 10 g/dL before surgery to minimize complications related to blood loss, according to some medical sources. Raising hemoglobin levels quickly can be done by incorporating iron-rich foods into your diet, potentially taking iron supplements (with doctor's approval), and ensuring adequate vitamin B12 and folate intake, according to some healthcare websites.
