Early anomaly scan DCDA twins

2025-10-13 07:03:26
The doctor suggested for early anomaly scan at 17 weeks. As per LMP it will be 18 weeks, however as per NT scan it is 17 weeks. There was intermediate risk for Trisomy 21 for one baby. However, NIPT came low risk. Please suggest if we have to do Anomaly again in 21 weeks.

Normally anomaly scan will be done around 18-22 wks As you have intermediate risk for trisomy your doctor may have suggested early anomaly scan if everything is normal in that no need to repeat later on
