Hello Doctor, From the last week I m getting right lower chest pain, Can't breath properly and also it is paining while lying down or inhale breath. What should I do.

Hi Viahnu Ji,

Thanks for your question!

The Double Marker Test is a screening test done during pregnancy, usually between the 9th and 13th week, to check the baby’s risk of having certain chromosomal abnormalities — mainly Down syndrome (Trisomy 21), Trisomy 18, and Trisomy 13.

What does the test measure?

The test looks at two markers in the mother's blood:

1. Free Beta hCG (a pregnancy hormone)
2. PAPP-A (Pregnancy Associated Plasma Protein A)

These are combined with other details, such as your age and ultrasound findings (nuchal translucency), to calculate the baby’s risk.

Why is it important?

• It does not diagnose a condition but tells you if there’s a higher or lower chance that your baby might have a genetic issue.
• If the risk is high, further tests like NIPT or amniocentesis may be recommended to confirm.

Is it safe?

Yes, it’s completely safe for both mother and baby — just a simple blood test.

If you or someone you know is expecting and planning this test, we can help you connect with a good specialist, book appointments, or answer any further questions.

Hello Pankaj ji,

Probably by ABHA procedure coverage, you mean Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY) — the Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana aimed at providing free healthcare to eligible individuals across India.

✅ Yes, pregnancy-related medical procedures are covered under Ayushman Bharat, including:

Antenatal Care (ANC)

• Routine pregnancy check-ups

• Screening for high-risk conditions like gestational diabetes or hypertension

• Supplementation and vaccinations during pregnancy

Delivery Services

• Normal vaginal delivery

• Cesarean section (C-section)

• Management of labour complications

• Delivery at empanelled government and private hospitals

Postnatal Care (PNC)

Hello Sangeeta ji, 

Please do not worry. A lump in the uterus is a fairly common condition and can be easily treated with the right medical care. Based on what your doctor said, surgery is likely recommended due to symptoms like pain, heavy bleeding, or the size of the lump.

Depending on your age and whether you’ve completed your family, the treatment may involve:

• Removing just the lump (e.g., fibroid or cyst)
• Or, in some cases, removing the uterus (hysterectomy), especially if you're not planning future pregnancies.

Recommended and Advanced Procedure Techniques

• Laparoscopic surgery (minimally invasive with smaller cuts)

• Robotic-assisted surgery (high precision, less pain, faster healing)

• Traditional open surgery (in selected cases)

Benefits of Getting the Procedure Done in Time

• Relief from symptoms like bleeding, pressure, or pain

• Prevention of further complications

• Improved quality of life

Recovery Phase

• With laparoscopic or robotic surgery, recovery is quicker — you may resume normal activities in about a week or so.

• Hospital stay is short, and pain is minimal with proper post-op care.
