Antenatal Screening and Genetic Testing Explained: What You Need to Know During Pregnancy 🤰💡

Expecting a baby? Antenatal screening and genetic tests can provide valuable information about your baby’s health and help you make informed decisions along your pregnancy journey.

Here’s a quick guide:

🔹 What is Antenatal Screening?

Antenatal screening is a set of test (such as NIPT) and procedure options (such as prenatal ultrasounds) during your pregnancy that provide important information about the pregnancy.

🔹 What is Genetic Testing/Screening in the Antenatal Period?

Genetic screening is a set of options that offer a high or low probability outcome of a range of genetic conditions/changes in the pregnancy. The conditions looked at can vary depending on the type of screening, and the company that offers it. Diagnostic genetic testing options in the antenatal period, through Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) or Amniocentesis help to clarify if there is an underlying genetic cause to pregnancy concerns seen on ultrasound or pathology testing, such as a high risk NIPT result.

🔹 When Are These Tests Done?

Routine prenatal ultrasounds are typically recommended at 12-14 weeks, and 21-24 weeks. Genetic screening through NIPT can be undertaken from around 10 weeks gestation, and diagnostic genetic testing options, are typically performed from around 12 weeks of the pregnancy if indicated.

🔹 Are These Tests Safe?

Screening tests like NIPT are non-invasive and does not have an associated miscarriage risk. Genetic diagnostic tests involve a small procedural related risk, which your healthcare provider will discuss with you.

🔹 Why Consider Screening?

To prepare emotionally and medically, explore options early, and feel more confident throughout your pregnancy

Our experienced team at No. 1 Women’s Health is here to explain your options and support you every step of the way.

🧷 Planning Ahead? Barrier Contraceptives Might Be Just What You Need ⛑️

If you're not ready for pregnancy right now but want to preserve your fertility for the future, barrier methods are a smart, low-impact choice.

Here are seom options you might not realise are available:

🩲 External condoms
Easy to access, no prescription needed and protects against STIs.

🙋‍♀️ Internal condoms
Inserted into the va**na before s*x. Gives you more control and also protects against STIs.

☂️ Diaphragms
A soft silicone dome placed inside the va**na to cover the cervix. Used with spermicide and can be inserted hours before s*x.

🧴 Spermicides and gels
Often used with other barrier methods to increase their effectiveness.

Barrier options are hormone free, do not affect your cycle, and are easy to stop when you're ready to try for pregnancy.

💬 Want to find out what might suit your body, lifestyle, or future plans? Our caring team at No. 1 Women’s Health is here to talk you through it all.
