Amniocentesis is usually performed between week 16 and week 18, though it can be performed as soon as week 15 or as late as week 20. Amnio looks for several hundred genetic diseases, including Down syndrome, Tay-Sachs and sickle cell anemia. Unlike chorionic villus sampling (CVS), amnio can also rule out neural tube defects such as spina bifida. It does not, however, detect every kind of abnormality, including cleft lip or palate. And it can't determine the severity of the problem. you may need a detailed discussion for further consultation.
