I'm 14 weeks pregnant and just got my Dual Marker test and Ultrasound done. I'm looking at the results, and I'm a bit confused. The Age Risk for Trisomy 21 says 1546, and it shows Screen negative at 124906. There's also Trisomy 18 with Screen negative at 1100000. The Free BHCG is 14.1 IUL at 0.78 MOM, and the PAPP-A is 3.64 IUL at 0.99 MOM. The Ultrasound shows the yolk sac, CRL is at 78.8 mm, which matches 13 weeks and 6 days, NT measurement is 1.7mm, and the nasal bone is seen at 0.89 MOM. I'm really concerned about what all these numbers mean. Could my baby possibly have Down Syndrome based on these results, and what should my next steps be?

there is no cause for concern regarding the risk of Down syndrome or other chromosomal conditions in your baby. The next step would likely be a routine follow-up ultrasound and continued monitoring throughout your pregnancy. If you have further concerns or if your doctor feels it necessary, they might recommend more specific tests such as NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) or amniocentesis for more detailed risk assessment, but based on these results, that is generally not required.Last updated on 04 Jul 2025
