Amniotic fluid aspiration is an accurate prenatal examination method that can accurately detect the chromosomal condition of the fetus and determine whether the fetus has diseases caused by chromosomal abnormalities. Many pregnant women undergo amniocentesis only when their prenatal screening results show a high risk. So, can amniocentesis flip over?
Amniotic fluid puncture may cause a reversal, but not everyone will experience a reversal. After pregnancy, women need to undergo many tests, including screening for fetal diseases. However, the accuracy of these screening projects is not 100%, and there may be errors. At this point, in order to obtain accurate results, amniocentesis can be performed to confirm the condition of the fetus.
Pregnant women who undergo amniocentesis usually have problems during pregnancy. For example, in Down syndrome screening, the result shows high risk, but due to the accuracy of Down syndrome screening being 70%, an amniocentesis is required. Many pregnant women over the age of 35 also undergo amniocentesis. If a woman has given birth to a child with chromosomal abnormalities or if there have been family members with Down syndrome, amniocentesis is also necessary.
After amniocentesis, the rate of flipping is not low. So don't give up on your baby easily until you get the final result, wait for confirmation before making any plans.
