ExpertDr Laxmi Chavan-SawantAyurvedic Gynaecologist 2 years agoA. yes it should be done in 11 - 12 th week of pregnancy. The double marker test helps determine whether the unborn baby has any risk of developing neurological abnormalities or mental disorders. It detects Down syndrome or Trisomy 21, Trisomy 18, and Trisomy 13, which cause mental and physical challenges in the baby.
