Determining the sex of a fetus at just 9 weeks of pregnancy! Shortly after a couple finds out that they will become parents, there is also a desire to find out as soon as possible who the fetus is. Fetal ultrasonography is the most widespread method of finding out if it is a girl or a boy. But often future parents are forced to wait a few months for the sex of the fetus to be clearly distinguishable at ultrasound.

Nowadays a simple blood test satisfies the curiosity of the future parents!

Considering that the sex of the future child is based on the chromosome characteristics, the test detecting the gender of the embryo in the maternal blood can be done from weeks 9-10 of pregnancy. The Fetal Sex Test determines certain genes of the Y chromosome that, if localized, means that the future child is a male. If they are not detected, the future child will be a female.

An accuracy rate of 96-100%, without any risk.

The test for fetal sex determination does not pose any risk to the pregnant woman or to the fetus as it is based on the molecular and genetic diagnosis method. The advantage of the analysis is that it has an accuracy of 96-100% due to the fact that it detects fetal DNA in the maternal blood.

Besides the fact that the test satisfies the curiosity of future parents, it is indicated to be performed if the pregnant women have endocrine diseases with masculinization effects, including congenital dysfunctions of the adrenal cortex. Physicians also recommend this type of test to pregnant mothers who bear in the genetic code gender-related disorders, such as hemophilia or other diseases such as mental retardation, immune deficiency.
