Hello! Can anyone please advise who has experienced this: the first ultrasound screening was normal, but the blood test showed elevated hCG levels, so I was referred to a geneticist. The geneticist sent me for another ultrasound, which turned out perfectly fine, but the blood test indicates a Down syndrome risk of 1:146 ??.

"Is it possible that when you were doing the analysis, you did not follow all the rules? Did you eat, or maybe did the ultrasound and the analysis on different days? What was the term at the time of the analysis?"

Марія , The term was 12 weeks, the last meal was at 10 in the evening, and in the morning at 11 I had an ultrasound followed immediately by tests. ?

Do you have one fetus according to the ultrasound? When it's twins, the hCG level is also higher and that's normal, maybe the second baby is hiding.

Good day! I understand that this may be a very stressful situation for you. A risk of 1:146 for Down syndrome means that the likelihood of your child having this syndrome is not high, but it still exists. It's important to remember that this is just statistics, and it's necessary to discuss all possible options with your doctor and geneticist. They will be able to provide you with more detailed information and help you make a decision about further actions. Remember, you are not alone in this, and it's important to seek support and consultation from specialists. Good luck to you and your family!
