What is it?
A fetal gender and wellbeing scan is a safe ultrasound examination performed during pregnancy to assess fetal development and determine fetal sex. The scan uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed, real-time images.
This examination is typically performed from 16 weeks of pregnancy, when fetal sex can usually be assessed reliably.
