THE SCARIEST EXPERIENCE OF MY PREGNANCY | eFTS & NIPT RESULT
During my first trimester, we went through such a very scary experience and that is having a positive (high risk) result of my eFTS (Enhanced First Trimester Screening).
Enhanced FTS is a new first trimester screening test that uses 4 serum markers plus the nuchal translucency (NT) measurement, along with maternal age to generate a pregnancy specific risk for Down syndrome. The two new markers that are analyzed include placental growth factor (PlGF) and first trimester alpha fetoprotein (AFP). This is in addition to PAPP-A and beta hCG, which have always been part of the FTS. - Trillium Health Partners
Check out on this video what is the result I got with all these test.
