How many weeks is it best to do the Down syndrome screening?

Patient's question:

My cousin has been married for two years and finally has a baby. It's been really hard waiting for this. All the necessary checks have been done, and there are no problems. Now, the only thing left is the Down syndrome screening, which is said to be quite important. So, I want to ask how many weeks are best for doing the Down syndrome screening?

Doctor's answer:

The optimal time for the Down syndrome screening is generally between 14 and 20 weeks, so it is very important to have regular prenatal check-ups during pregnancy. The role of hardware is primarily used to detect many diseases so that preventive measures can be taken in advance, or better measures can be adopted. In addition to prenatal check-ups, it is important to maintain a calm and optimistic attitude, persist in exercising, and ensure a nutritionally balanced diet.
