Double marker positive but NIPT negative

2022-12-05 13:45:50
Our NT SCAN report came normal, But followed double marker report came high risk for trisomy 21,18,31. The doctor suggested to get NIPT DONE . GOD'S grace report came low risk. How to take this, is it common that double markers give false positives. As NIPT came low risk, hope our baby is doing good. Still Any other tests required?

Nipt gives 90 percent confirmation Its beter to go for amniocentesis, where in they take the fluid from the abdomen and send it for chromosomal analysi

Its unlikely that double marker shows high risk for all 3 of them, hence im little doubtful
