Are You a Candidate for CVS?

You may consider having a CVS because:

  • You are 35 years or older (risk increases with age).
  • You have screening results showing an increased risk for a chromosomal abnormality
  • Your pregnancy is at risk for an inherited genetic condition such as Tay Sachs disease, sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, fragile X or other conditions for which testing is available
  • You have a family or personal history of a chromosomal abnormality or a genetic condition.
