NIPT Test in Dubai from AED 700
Pregnancy is a special journey filled with excitement, anticipation, and important decisions. Many expectant parents want early information about their baby’s development and the possibility of certain chromosomal conditions.
The Non-Invasive Prenatal Test (NIPT) is an advanced prenatal screening test that analyses small fragments of cell-free fetal DNA (cfDNA) present in the mother’s blood. It can be performed from as early as the 10th week of pregnancy and requires only a simple maternal blood sample.
At MyHealth@Home (MHH), you can book an NIPT Test in Dubai from AED 700, with convenient home blood sample collection and a choice of screening packages to suit your needs.
What Is an NIPT Test?
NIPT is a non-invasive prenatal blood screening test that estimates the likelihood of certain chromosomal conditions in a developing baby.
During pregnancy, small fragments of DNA from the placenta circulate in the mother’s bloodstream. The laboratory analyses these cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragments to determine whether there may be an extra or missing copy of a chromosome.
Depending on the selected package, NIPT may screen for:
- Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome)
- Trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome)
- Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome)
- Sex chromosome abnormalities
- Additional autosomal chromosomal abnormalities
- Selected microdeletion syndromes (available with selected packages)
NIPT is one of the most accurate prenatal screening tests available for common fetal chromosomal conditions. However, it is a screening test, not a diagnostic test. An abnormal screening result should always be confirmed with appropriate diagnostic testing, as recommended by your healthcare provider.

No. NIPT is a screening test that estimates whether a pregnancy has a higher or lower probability of certain chromosomal conditions.
A higher-probability result does not necessarily mean that the baby has the condition. Similarly, a lower-probability result cannot completely rule out every chromosomal or genetic condition.
When an NIPT result indicates a higher probability, the patient should discuss the result with an obstetrician, fetal medicine specialist or genetic counsellor. Further diagnostic testing, such as chorionic villus sampling or amniocentesis, may be recommended before making medical decisions. s not replace routine pregnancy check-ups, ultrasound examinations or other prenatal tests recommended by your doctor.
