What you need to know about non-invasive prenatal testing
Non-invasive prenatal tests can detect different genetic abnormalities. These screening tests help to find out the probability of your baby's risk of having a genetic condition that affects his or her health.
This type of analysis works as an alternative to more invasive tests, such as amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling. From a non-invasive prenatal test, it is possible to determine the need for an invasive diagnostic test, such as those mentioned above, to confirm or rule out the genetic disease affecting your child.

This test assesses the risk of trisomy 21, 18 and 13, i.e. Down's syndrome, Edwards' syndrome and Patau's syndrome, as well as being able to determine foetal sex (except in multiple pregnancies of only males).
Cost of a Harmony Medium Prenatal
The Harmony Medium non-invasive prenatal test is priced at 360 €. It is a prenatal screening, which allows to know the health of the baby with only 10 weeks of pregnancy.
This test is indicated for mothers with a high risk of aneuploidy, whether due to a suspected aneuploidy in the ultrasound, a previous history of trisomy or another risk factor.
This test assesses the risk of trisomy 21, 18 and 13, i.e. Down's syndrome, Edwards' syndrome and Patau's syndrome, and abnormalities in the X and Y chromosomes (Aneuploidy), as well as being able to determine foetal sex (except in multiple pregnancies of only males).
Cost of a Harmony Extended Prenatal
The non-invasive Harmony Extended Prenatal Test costs 449 €. As with the Basic Harmony, the Extended Harmony is also performed from the 10th week and is indicated, above all, in pregnant women at risk of aneuploidy.
In addition to knowing the risk of trisomies 21, 18 and 13 and anomalies in the X and Y chromosomes (aneuploidies), the Extended test can detect DiGeorge syndrome, known as 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.
It is also possible to know the sex of the baby, except in cases of multiple pregnancies (twins, twins, triplets, etc.) of only boys.
