When do pregnant women need to have an amniocentesis?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, amniocentesis is performed only for pregnant women with high-risk results from the triple screen test. However, according to the hospital's statement, in fact, every couple should undergo amniocentesis. It's just that due to the varying financial situations of each family, further testing is only recommended for those with high-risk results from the triple screen.
