I am 14 weeks pregnant. I had a double marker test at 13 weeks and 3 days. My free beta HCG level is 28.4 ng/ml and PAPP is 12.8 mIU/ml. Are these levels normal? Please tell me.

Your double marker test values seem high and unusual typically, values are in MoM (multiples of median), not ng/ml. Please confirm units and get report reviewed. If values are truly elevated, follow up with NT scan and possibly Quad marker test for confirmation.

Hi Doctors, My double marker test report shows Down Syndrome risk as 1 in 352 and Edward Syndrome risk as 1 in 24360. I am 13 weeks and 5 days pregnant. Please suggest if these ranges are fine. Thanks.

I recently did my routine first trimester antenatal blood tests, and my report shows a high risk result for trisomy 21 (1:7) and trisomy 13/18 (1:11). I am 27 years old. I am very worried after seeing this report. Could you please guide me on what steps I should take next to confirm or reduce this risk?

Doctor, in my double marker test report, my beta hCG level is 11 ng/mL. I showed the report to my personal doctor, and he said everything is normal, explaining that there is a difference between beta hCG and total hCG levels. However, I am still worried about my beta hCG count. Could you please clarify if this level is normal and if I should be concerned?
