Hi doctor,
My wife is 27 years old and 13 weeks pregnant now. As per suggestion from doctor, we went for a double marker test. It is found that trisomy 21 + NT risk is 1:86 and doctor suggested for amniocentesis procedure. Now I am confused and do not know what to do. My wife scared that the procedure is risky and painful. Please explain us about it.

Hi doctor,
Thanks a lot for your detailed information. We have received the amniocentesis and karyotyping result. I kindly request you to have a say on that. I was told that test result is normal.
