A. Dr batayenge आपको डॉक्टर से मिलना पड़ेगा क्योंकि बिना डॉक्टर से मिले तकलीफ के बारे में ठीक से पता नहीं चलेगा क्योंकि ऐसी तकलीफों के लिए पूरे शरीर का एग्जामिनेशन करना पड़ता है। दवा भी डॉक्टर से मिलने के बाद ही दी जा सकती है। डॉक्टर बताएंगे कि आगे की ट्रीटमेंट पद्धति कैसी होगी।

A. In pregnancy, various ultrasound scans are conducted at different stages to monitor the baby's development and the mother's health. After a growth scan, which is typically done around 28 to 32 weeks of pregnancy to check the baby's growth and development, the next scan might be: ### 1. **Biophysical Profile (BPP) or Non-Stress Test (NST)** - **When:** Typically done around 32 to 34 weeks if there are concerns about the baby's health, such as reduced fetal movements, high-risk pregnancies, or growth issues detected in the previous scan. - **Purpose:** Assesses the baby's health by looking at heart rate, muscle tone, movement, breathing, and the amount of amniotic fluid. ### 2. **Follow-Up Growth Scan** - **When:** Between 34 and 36 weeks if the previous growth scan indicated any growth concerns, to ensure the baby is continuing to grow appropriately. - **Purpose:** Monitors the baby's size, position, and overall health, and checks for any abnormalities in growth patterns. ### 3. **Doppler Ultrasound** - **When:** Can be performed around 32 to 34 weeks, or earlier if indicated, especially in high-risk pregnancies or if previous scans showed potential issues with blood flow to the baby. - **Purpose:** Measures blood flow in the umbilical artery, fetal brain, and other vessels to ensure the baby is getting enough oxygen and nutrients. ### 4. **Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI)** - **When:** Often performed between 34 and 36 weeks, especially if there are concerns about the amniotic fluid levels detected in earlier scans. - **Purpose:** Measures the amount of amniotic fluid surrounding the baby to ensure there is enough fluid for the baby's development. ### 5. **Late-Term Scan (Term Ultrasound)** - **When:** Around 36 to 40 weeks if the pregnancy reaches full term without any complications, or earlier if indicated. - **Purpose:** Assesses the baby's position, weight, and the condition of the placenta, and helps in planning the delivery. ### Typical Timeline of Ultrasound Scans - **Dating Scan:** 8 to 14 weeks to confirm pregnancy dates. - **Nuchal Translucency Scan:** 11 to 14 weeks for Down syndrome screening. - **Anomaly Scan (Mid-Pregnancy Scan):** 18 to 22 weeks to check for physical abnormalities. - **Growth Scan:** 28 to 32 weeks to assess the baby's growth and development. - **Follow-Up Scans:** As needed, based on any issues detected in previous scans. ### Final Note Always follow the schedule and advice provided by your healthcare provider, as they will tailor the scan schedule based on your specific needs and the health of your pregnancy. Regular prenatal care and monitoring are essential to ensure the best outcomes for both mother and baby.
