NIPT Advanced (Non-Invasive Prenatal Test)

A simple blood test from mum, from 10 weeks of pregnancy, that screens all 23 chromosome pairs, including sex chromosome conditions. Blood sample from mum.

NIPT looks at small fragments of your baby's DNA that circulate in your blood during pregnancy, so one sample from you is enough. The Advanced test goes beyond the three common conditions to screen every chromosome pair. There's no risk to your baby and no fasting needed, and knowing your baby's sex is optional. A high-risk result needs a diagnostic test advised by your obstetrician.
