I'm 15 weeks pregnant and just got my NT scan and double marker tests done. I'm worried about my results and need to know if they're normal. My FBHCG is 193 ngmlis that okay? Also, my biochemical T21 risk is 1:178. Does that mean there's a significant risk? My nuchal translucency is 1.7 mm and NT MoM is 1.09. My report mentions the trisomy 21 risk is negative, as well as the trisomy 1318 screen. Can you help me understand what all this means?

Based on your report, your parameters appear normal: the free beta-hCG (193ngml) is within the typical range for 15 weeks gestation, the biochemical T21 risk (1:178) is considered low-risk, and the nuchal translucency (1.7mm) with a MoM of 1.09 is also within normal limits, and with the trisomy 21, 13, and 18 screens all reported as negative, your results indicate a low risk for these chromosomal abnormalities.

View allI'm a bit concerned because it's been 42 days since my last period and I haven't gotten it yet. I'm worried I might be pregnant but I took two tests and they came back negative. I'm experiencing some symptoms like back pain, morning sickness, pelvic pain, and bloating. Could these symptoms mean I'm pregnant? When would be a good time to test again? What do you think these symptoms might indicate?

Is taking abortion pills at home safe if I'm only 2 weeks pregnant? A doctor recommended surgery but I was hoping for an oral treatment instead. I need advice on what to do as soon as possible
Medication abortion (or medical abortion) is a safe, reliable and non-surgical means of abortion for people who have made an informed decision that is is the best option for them. Medication abortion is an alternative to surgical abortion in the early weeks of pregnancy (up to 9 weeks)
