Should we do amniocentesis to rule out downs syndrome or heart diseases?
Hi doctor,
My wife has a blood pressure of 100/80 mm of Hg and weighs 61.9 kg. She is 16 weeks and four days pregnant with a second baby. Our first child is 8 years old girl and had a normal delivery. During the ultrasound, the echogenic focus was seen in the left ventricle. Is there any risk of down syndrome and heart disease? We are waiting for the quadruple marker test report. Kindly advise if any other test or amniocentesis is to be done further. There is no history of down syndrome and heart disease on my parent's side as well as her parent's side. However, my father suffers from high blood pressure. Please find the prescription and test report date-wise.

What causes greenish vaginal discharge and a cauliflower-like bump near the vaginal canal?
Hello doctor,
I have had a green discharge problem for many years. Recently, I noticed a bump on the vagina opening and a cauliflower-like bump near the canal. I am scared. Could it be HPV or cancer? I am not sexually active, but auto-inoculation is a possibility. So I am scared HPV could have been transmitted from my face, and now it could have become cancerous due to cellular changes.
