I was told of a higher risk of preeclampsia based on 12week scan & blood test. I didn’t seek a 2nd opinion and was prescribed aspirin 150mg & start at wk16. Currently @ 26 weeks and so far so good. If u are feeling uncomfortable, u can seek 2nd opinion.
The 12 week scan is a useful assessment of risk, along with other symptoms/predispositions identified by the gynae. They'll conduct further tests/scan to diagnose or recommend prophylaxis depending on your condition.
Thank Mrs Loh. Gynae prescribed aspirin as a preventive measure but am hesitant to take it and hence wondering if a second opinion will be useful. No other test was done other than the ultrasound
