Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello, amniotic fluid testing is mainly used for paternity testing. Gender identification does not require amniotic fluid testing; it can be done through ultrasound. Generally speaking, after 15 weeks of pregnancy (which is about 3.5 months), the gender of the fetus can be identified through ultrasound, as by around 15 weeks, external genital organs such as the testicles of a boy or the labia of a girl can be distinguished.
