Question

I would like to know which tests are not customary or forbidden to perform from the following list: nuchal translucency, first trimester biochemical screening, genetic screening, early anatomy scan, amniocentesis, late anatomy scan.

Answer

Shalom Rav

If everything is normal in the ultrasound, it is not advisable to perform additional tests at all. Although there is no prohibition, it is not recommended for several reasons. However, if the woman really wants, it is possible.
