Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 31 years old and pregnant at 13 weeks. Recently I went for an ultrasound scan and double marker test. The test results are. Free Hcg - 31.28, PAPP-A - 11585.80, NT- 1.20, AGE RISK- 1:542, TRISOMY 21- 1:80005, TRISOMY 18- 1:977609. They gave diagnostic results with less risk. Please explain about this results.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com, and thanks for preferring icliniq for your health consultation.

According to your report, the total risk of congenital anomalies is typically determined using a variety of variables such as the patient's age, family history, serum blood tests, and nuchal translucency. Your age is not too dangerous, as people over the age of 35 are more likely to have an abnormal baby. Knowing the family history of congenital anomalies on both sides of families is necessary. Nuchal translucency less than 2.9 is considered normal, and serum markers are all so common that the chance is almost negligible (one in many thousands). It is preferable to have an anomaly ultrasound at 20 weeks, as is recommended in every normal pregnancy.

All the best.

Regards.
