Katie Lee, CGC Talks Miscarriage and Fertility

Күн бұрын

Today Katie shared her non-invasive prenatal testing results that she got back just a couple of weeks ago. NIPT goes by many names including non-invasive prenatal screening (NIPS), cell-free testing, and many different companies offer it. I am going to walk-though my Panorama NIPT results that were done through the lab called Natera. NIPT is a first-trimester screen that can be utilized to determine if your pregnancy is at an increased risk to be affected by a chromosome imbalance such as trisomy 21 and/or microdeletion syndromes.
Check out Katie Lee's website and fertility/miscarriage related digital downloads: www.katieleecgc.com/shop
If you would like to check out Natera's Panorama test which is discussed during this video, please visit their website here: www.natera.com/womens-health/...
I do not work for Natera and the views expressed in this video are my own personal views!
Your provider might offer a different NIPT test. There are many other reputable offerings. Some are listed below:

@katieleecgctalksmiscarriage 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! I sure did do carrier screening. I happened to work with a different lab for my carrier screening. I have a video coming out on this testing soon. The goal of carrier screening is to see if the egg source and sperm source are carriers of any of the same diseases and would have a risk to have an affected child. The Horizon carrier screening will look for single-gene diseases and is assessing a totally different risk than the NIPT testing! I always think of genetic testing as optional, but if you want to better understand your risk to have a child with any of the disorders included on the panel, I would definitely be drawn for it! Congratulations!

@katieleecgctalksmiscarriage 2 жыл бұрын

This is a great question. NIPT cannot screen for diabetes, ADHD, or any other common multifactorial diseases like cancer risks, risks for psychiatric diagnoses or allergies. All of these conditions are caused by a combination of many genetic factors and environmental triggers or risk factors. There is no test to tell us if a living child/adult will definitely develop these conditions. There is also not a test available to definitively tell us if a pregnancy/fetus will develop these conditions.

Hi! Thanks for your videos. Question: I am doing IVF with PGT-A this spring. Is it necessary to do NIPT if I’ve already done PGT-A and we’ve transferred a normal embryo? I don’t want to know the sex of the baby until delivery.

@katieleecgctalksgeneticcou6248 2 жыл бұрын

This is a great question and there is not a right or wrong answer. I would definitely recommend discussing with your provider when you get to the point of NIPT (~9 weeks pregnant). NIPT is a lot like PGT-A in that it tests a small sample and is a screening tool that is not 100% accurate. That being said, I find that most patients do proceed with NIPT even after transferring a euploid/normal embryo because there is a chance it could pick up a chromosome imbalance that was missed by PGT-A. In addition, most NIPT labs offer screening for microdeletions (rare syndromes) that are undetectable by PGT-A at this time. If you would like another level of screening for a future pregnancy, NIPT is a non-invasive way to determine whether your pregnancy may be at risk for a chromosome imbalance. If you would want to know that information during pregnancy than it is likely worth considering, but by no means required. I am wishing you the very best and a bountiful IVF cycle this spring!

@katieleecgctalksmiscarriage Жыл бұрын

Hi Kali! Thanks so much for watching. I am so glad you found this video helpful. The carrier screening panels that are offered today can include over 500 genes, which means that almost every person will come back a carrier of at least one disease. Ideally, both the egg and sperm source would complete carrier screening so your clinican can help you compare results for the best interpretation. I definitely suggest that all people planning to conceive in the next couple of years learn about carrier screening and decide whether it would be helpful for their family planning and decision making. I have done it and I do typically suggest at least a small- medium panel to most of my friends. I actually just posted a video on this topic: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fqllobqimJjRpGw.html

Hi, enjoyed the info on NIPT. Still not offered by any labs in the UK so samples have to be sent to the states, which presumably adds to the cost - it's not covered by our health service unless deemed high risk. I was wondering if you could do anything on ultrasound abnormality screening for a future video? I had a normal pregnancy with my 3 year old but an umbilical cyst was picked up so had additional screening. Was given the all clear but found at birth that he has complex needs, likely caused by genetic issue. They haven't been able to find the cause, despite extensive testing. We had 2 miscarriages last year and are now pregnant again - have made it to 13wks but finding it really hard. They can't test for my son's condition so will only get an indication at >20wks whether the pregnancy can continue. It's also tricky because I know there's a good chance they might miss the signs a second time. It feels very lonely. Even if we make it through without losing the pregnancy, we know we might not be able to continue with it.

@Books And Curls hi, we've had 2 fetal medicine scans - one at 20wks and another (that I had to push for) at 28wks. They haven't found any cause for concern but can't guarantee anything. I'm due early November so guess we'll find out soon one way or another!

I would definitely encourage you to speak with your doctor about any concerns you have. However, fetal fraction is essentially a quality control measurement. The goal of NIPT is to determine whether there is an increased or decreased risk for a genetic difference in the baby. Those are the key findings/results. It is debated whether the fetal fraction should even be shared on the results report because it is not the goal of the testing. Rather than waiting for your doctor's appointment you could call the lab that ran the testing and ask for a genetic counselor.

In the case of my results, a low risk meant a less than 1 in 10,000 chance my pregnancy is affected with Down syndrome, trisomy 18 or trisomy 13.

When my report came back however it only indicated one, but I didn't go into the blood draw with confirmation of twins.

If the results didn't look like a singleton pregnancy or there was concern for a problem, it would be reported as "high risk" Be sure to speak with your doctor or give Natera a call to get all your questions answered!

@katieleecgctalksmiscarriage 2 жыл бұрын

I am not aware of any well-known companies offering NIPT that can determine a baby's blood type. Is there a reason why you want to know baby's blood type? I would express your concerns to your OB. Katie

Hi, not sure you'll see this or reply. But we did the nipt test and everything came out low risk except for "monosomy x" it said "no result." My fetal fraction was 11% so I can't retake the test. I have to get amnio done and seek genetic counseling. I've just been so worried and stressed thinking about all the different things it could mean :( it seems very rare get such result and now that I have it I can't help but think of the worst and what this could mean for this pregnancy. Any advice?

Hi, From India My anomaly scan report showed baby's nasal bone value as 4.4, doctor have suggested me to go for NIPT after a second round of anomaly to revisit the NB value. Should I go for NIPT? is it reliable?

@katieleecgctalksmiscarriage 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Lavanya- absence of the nasal bone or differences in the nasal bone on early ultrasound could be a soft marker of Down syndrome, meaning the risk may be increased above that of a pregnancy with a "normal" nasal bone. Because NIPT poses no risk to you or the baby, it would definitely be worth considering if you would like to try to clarify your risk to have a baby with a chromosome imbalance. If you want a more accurate test than NIPT, I would ask your provider about CVS or amniocentesis- those are the most accurate prenatal tests. I am sorry about this finding and I hope you are hanging in there.

I got NIPT at 10 weeks and quad at 14 weeks. I wonder if something had changed in between week 10 and week 14? (1:168 for DS, 1:68 for Trisomy 18 by quad test. NIPT is low risk (1:10,000) My doctor says NIPT is much more accurate. However, the quad test was done later. Is it a good idea to do one more NIPT? My 20 week’s anatomy ultrasound showed everything is WNL.

@katieleecgctalksmiscarriage 2 жыл бұрын

Congratulations on your pregnancy! I am so happy to hear about your low-risk NIPT results and normal 20-week U/S. If I were in your shoes I would be feeling very reassured despite the quad screen results. It is exceedingly unlikely that a patient with a low risk NIPT and normal 20 week scan would have a baby affected with trisomy 18 or trisomy 21 (Down syndrome). NIPT is a more accurate test than the quad and has a much lower rate of false positives than the quad. If your baby had a chromosome syndrome it will have been there since conception. It is not the case that trisomy 18 or Down syndrome would develop btwn 10 weeks-14 weeks. Quad screen has to be done later because of the fact that it is measuring hormones in the blood and their patterns are most predictable at certain times in pregnancy. NIPT is measuring fetal DNA, which is why it can be done anytime after 9.5 weeks. If a patient wanted further reassurance, they may consider an amniocentesis which is the most accurate test you can have at this point with 99.5% accuracy for picking up chromosome syndromes. Babies with trisomy 21 and trisomy 18 typically have birth defects noted on the 20 week U/S and/or positive NIPT results. I would encourage you to talk with your doctor and genetic counselor about your concerns. But if it were me I would not be repeating NIPT. If I were very anxious and wanted the most certainty I might consider an amnio.

It definitely depends on your perspective. This is why I think all patients should learn how the testing works BEFORE they decide whether or not to do it. Some patients would like the results of this test to give them some foresight and others would not. It's an individual's choice.

This can happen, in fact in the world of fertility medicine, it happens all the time. It all depends when that ultrasound was performed. If it was performed early in pregnancy, like before 18 weeks, there is definitely a chance that sex of the pregnancy was incorrect. I would wait for an ultrasound around 20 weeks and my guess will be it will match the NIPT results. If ultrasound continues to show XY (assigned male at birth) and the NIPT is consistent with XX, there are a few things your doctor can look into for your baby/pregnancy. Keep me posted!
