A miscarriage refers to the loss of a single pregnancy, usually occurring before the 24th week of gestation. It is relatively common, with approximately 15-20% of pregnancies ending in miscarriage. Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), on the other hand, is diagnosed when a woman experiences two or more consecutive miscarriages. Unlike a single miscarriage, RPL in pregnancy indicates the possibility of underlying issues that require further investigation through RPL testing.
What is the NIPT Test for Pregnancy?
The NIPT test in pregnancy, or Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing, is a highly accurate screening tool used to detect chromosomal abnormalities in a fetus. This blood test analyses small fragments of fetal DNA circulating in the mother's bloodstream, checking for conditions like Down syndrome (Trisomy 21), Edwards’ syndrome (Trisomy 18), and Patau syndrome (Trisomy 13). MedGenome’s NIPT test in India is a safe alternative to invasive diagnostic methods and can be done as early as the 10th week of pregnancy. The results offer over 99% accuracy, providing early insights into fetal health.
