What is Fetal Echo & Why is it Important in Pregnancy ? #fetalechocardiography #pregnancy #health

A fetal echo, or fetal echocardiogram, is an ultrasound study performed between 18-22 weeks of pregnancy.
During a fetal echo, the doctor can look closely at the structure and function of the fetal heart to check for any abnormalities or issues.
The fetal heart is studied during routine anomaly scans, but a detailed study like Fetal Echo is advised under the following circumstances
1. If you have Conceived by assisted reproductive techniques like IVF
2. If the mother's age is more than 35 years
3.If there is a family history of congenital heart disease or another child born with heart defects.
4. If a Genetic problem is found in the fetus during an anomaly scan
5. If a mother is taking medicines for depression, seizures, acne, or blood pressure, that increases the baby's chances of having congenital heart disease.
6. If a mother is an alcoholic or drug addict during pregnancy.
7. If a mother is having health problems like Diabetes, Lupus, metabolic diseases or infections like Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, etc
Fetal Echo is an important study as it helps us understand the complexity of a baby's heart defects and whether an intervention is required.
