A member asked:

Dr, im 13 weeks preg, doc ask me to take quadruple scan on week 15, what is the use of that scan? i did chrmsml test bfr preg and got result as normal

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Quad test: The quad screen is a test done in the second trimester to check for some birth defects. Women who are 35 or older, or who have a family history of genetic disease, are more likely to get the quadruple screen. However, any woman can ask for this test.
