Noninvasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) is a prenatal screening, which looks at DNA from your baby’s placenta in a sample of your blood to identify whether you’re at increased risk of giving birth to a child with a genetic disorder. A screening like NIPT cannot, however, determine for sure whether your baby actually has a chromosomal disorder, only the likelihood of having that condition.
The results of an NIPT screening can help you and your doctor decide next steps, including whether to have a diagnostic test like chorionic villus sampling (CVS) or amniocentesis.
All NIPTs screen for the most common chromosomal disorders:
- Trisomy 21
- Trisomy 18
- Trisomy 13
NIPT also detects your baby’s Rh blood type and gender, so be sure to let your doctor know if you want to be surprised on delivery day
NIPT can be performed any time after 9 weeks into your pregnancy — earlier than any other prenatal screening or diagnostic test.
