Atlanta Amniocentesis Tests
If you live in one of the communities north of Atlanta and are looking for an OB/GYN practice that performs Amniocentesis tests, call North Pointe OB/GYN Associates. Amniocentesis is a prenatal test that allows a healthcare practitioner to gather information about your baby’s health from a sample of your amniotic fluid (the fluid that surrounds your baby in the uterus). The procedure involves inserting a long, thin, hollow needle through your amniotic wall and into the sac of fluid around your baby and withdrawing a small amount of fluid to be tested. This test is usually performed when a woman is between fifteen and twenty weeks pregnant.
The most common reason to have an Amniocentesis is to determine whether your baby has certain genetic disorders or a chromosomal abnormality, however, there are additional reasons why this test may be recommended. Amniocentesis is an invasive procedure that requires both training and experience. The physicians at North Pointe OB/GYN Associates are highly trained and have extensive experience performing Amniocentesis procedures.
