NIPT
At Skin Sense Private GP, we offer accurate, non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) to screen for genetic abnormalities early in pregnancy.
Procedure
NIPT is a non-invasive test that screens for common genetic conditions such as Down syndrome, trisomy 18, and trisomy 13. The test involves drawing a small sample of the mother’s blood, which contains fetal DNA. This DNA is then analyzed to assess the likelihood of the baby having certain genetic conditions. NIPT can be performed as early as the 10th week of pregnancy and is highly accurate, providing peace of mind to expectant parents.
