Was reading some stuff online and got curious. During the anomaly scan or any other test, can they actually tell if the baby is intersex? Just want to understand, not worried about anything specific. Anyone whose doc explained this?
Actually, some chromosomal tests like NIPT or even detailed scans can show variations in baby's development or chromosomes. But it's not like a standard test we do routine wise. Better to ask your gynac clearly about what these tests cover.
I had severe thyroid issues throughout my pregnancy so I had to visit my doctor almost every month for blood tests and updates. For these kinds of specific queries, it's always best to have a frank chat with your gynac during your regular follow-ups. They know your case history best.
I'm actually still trying to conceive so I don't know much about all the scans yet. But from what I've heard from my cousins, regular scans mostly check if baby is healthy and growing fine. Wishing you a very safe and happy pregnancy ahead, dear.
I am not a medical expert so can't tell you the science behind it, but in my case we only did the standard anomaly scan at 5 months. The doctor just checked if baby was growing normally and all organs were fine. We never really went into specific chromosome details beyond the basic reports.
Hey, don't stress too much about all this right now! Usually, regular double marker or NIPT can give some clues about chromosomes, but unless doctor specifically tells u, just chill. Enjoy this phase, standard reports clear hain na?
Oh god, I remember googling every single test during my pregnancy and getting so stressed! Honestly, standard scans don't always show everything clearly unless there's a specific reason to check. Just try to breathe and focus on your routine checkups, everything will be fine.
