What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're pregnant and want to understand your baby's risk for certain chromosomal conditions like Down syndrome. It's a simple blood draw that screens for increased risk of Trisomy 21, 18, and 13, as well as certain sex chromosome differences, without any risk to your pregnancy. Many people choose this test for extra peace of mind early in pregnancy, or because their pregnancy has been flagged as higher risk.

What's included in this test?

This screening looks at cell-free DNA circulating in your blood to check for extra or missing copies of specific chromosomes linked to conditions like Down syndrome. It also screens for certain sex chromosome differences and can reveal fetal sex, giving you a broad early picture of chromosomal health without an invasive procedure.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account with a clear explanation of what each finding means and whether your risk level is low or increased. If your result shows increased risk for a condition, the report will explain that genetic counseling and additional diagnostic testing are the recommended next steps to confirm anything before making any pregnancy decisions. If your result is low risk, no further action is typically needed unless your pregnancy history changes. You can download the full lab report anytime and revisit it later through your account.

How can I naturally support a healthy pregnancy?

While chromosomal risk itself can't be changed through lifestyle, supporting a healthy pregnancy overall involves eating a balanced diet with folate, iron, and protein, staying well hydrated, and getting regular light activity when approved. Avoiding alcohol, smoking, and unnecessary medications also supports healthy fetal development. Prenatal vitamins with folic acid are commonly recommended starting before or early in pregnancy.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your blood draw. You'll be notified as soon as your report is available in your account, so there's no need to call or follow up.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good option for anyone at least 10 weeks pregnant who wants an early, non-invasive look at chromosomal risk. It's especially relevant if you're over 35, have a family history of chromosomal conditions, or had an abnormal result on a prior screening. It's also chosen simply for added reassurance early in pregnancy.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

There typically aren't physical symptoms that signal a need for this test, since chromosomal risk isn't something you can feel. Instead, it's usually considered based on factors like maternal age, family history, or a prior screening result that raised questions. If you're simply curious or want early information, that's a valid reason too.

What does an increased-risk result mean?

An increased-risk result means the screening found signs that raise the chance of a chromosomal condition like Down syndrome, but it does not confirm a diagnosis. This is a screening test, so false positives can happen, which is why increased-risk results should always be followed by genetic counseling and diagnostic testing like amniocentesis. Try not to make any pregnancy decisions based on this result alone.

How often should I retest?

This test is generally done once per pregnancy, ideally after 10 weeks gestation, since testing earlier raises the chance of an unclear or failed result. If your result comes back unclear or fails to generate a reading, retesting a blood draw may be recommended. Each new pregnancy would need its own separate screening.

What should I do if my results are abnormal?

If your results show increased risk, the recommended next step is genetic counseling along with diagnostic testing such as CVS or amniocentesis to get a definitive answer. Try to avoid making major decisions based on the screening result alone, since it's not a diagnosis. Keep a copy of your downloadable report handy, as it can be useful for these follow-up conversations.
