Harmony Test
For a more peaceful pregnancy
The Harmony test is a non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) that can screen for certain chromosomal abnormalities in the fetus as early as the 10th week of pregnancy, using a simple maternal blood sample. It is an advanced screening test that is safe for both mother and baby.
What does the Harmony screen?
The Harmony test analyzes fetal DNA circulating in the mother's blood to detect:
- Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)
- Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome)
- Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)
- Sex chromosome abnormalities (X and Y) – optional
- Baby's sex – optional
The Harmony test is over 99% accurate for trisomy 21.
A medical prescription is required.
