Hello Dr Koregol
In my 12th week scan NT was little high = 2.8 mm ( Triomy Risk Down syndrome_ Bacground Risk was 1:202 & adjusted risk was 1:21).
Than we got done NIPT to avoid Amnio or CVS, which shows Low Risk ( Report Attached)
Than in 17.6 Week we got the Anomaly scan done ( Report attached) after that the Dr advised to get the Quadruple Test done , which we got done in 19.3 week , which shows Down Syndrom 1.141 ( increased Risk) & the same Dr asked to get the Amniocentesis done in a day or 2, By this Saturday ( Report attached).
Now we are confused, should we do Amnio or not. are we taking Down Syndrom Risk or we are taking Miscarriage & Infection Risk.
Please advise after going through my Reports
Also if you know any good Obstracian in XXXXXXX ,
