I think you also write #2 instead of #1. What I want to know is whether there is the case where you use "does" like #3.

Here are the sentences:
#2 It is necessary that she do something for her son.
#3 It is necessary that she does something for her son.

I look forward to a comment.
thank you.

Hi Lina,

#1 and #3 are OK. I don't know why you use " do " in #2, it must be "does" because of the third person "she".
May be what you want to know is emphasizing what's said.
eg. It's necessary that she does understand her son.
