Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Amniotic fluid : It sounds like you might be referring to an amniotic fluid index from a sonogram report. If this is what you are referring to an AFI (amniotic fluid index) is considered normal when greater than 5 cm and less than 25 cm.

Dr Machanic and another doctor agreed
