Dr. Jamie Grifo Contributes to NY Times Article on New Test That Predicts Gender as Early as Seven Weeks
August 20, 2011
A new test available in drug stores and online is able to determine the gender of a pregnancy as early as seven weeks. Using DNA from the fetus found in the mother's blood or urine, the tests have proven to have 95% accuracy. This article explores how learning the gender at such an early stage of pregnancy - normally gender is determined by ultrasound around the 16th week - may impact American families and the national debate on abortion. Dr. Jamie Grifo is quoted.
