Hi, valvular disease in general and mitral regurgitation are mostly acquired diseases, to make an accurate diagnosis requires a doctor to perform a good clinical examination, as well as perform some tests, especially ultrasonography. Echocardiography – is a diagnostic method with high accuracy, easy to perform and no harm to the patient.
She has 2/4 mitral regurgitation, ie mild, however, she should have an echocardiogram, periodically check every 6 months - 1 year to assess the progression / or remission of the disease. For a complete and accurate diagnosis, you should go to a medical facility that specializes in Cardiology for advice and an accurate diagnosis. Based on that to have the most reasonable treatment and prevention regimen.
