Patient's question:
I just got pregnant for a month. I want to do a DNA test to see if the child is my husband's. How long does it take, and what procedures are needed? Do I need to file a report with the police station? Do I need anything from my husband?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: In this case, DNA needs to be extracted through the hair, saliva, etc. of the other half.Guidance: The earliest time for fetal is between 8 weeks and 14 weeks of pregnancy, when fetal villi can be extracted for. However, this procedure is extremely risky and may lead to miscarriage or fetal malformation. Between 16 and 24 weeks of pregnancy, an amniocentesis can be performed to extract amniotic fluid for. The safest period is between 16 and 24 weeks. Only a small amount of 3-5 milliliters is needed, and it will not affect fetal growth.
