The American Pregnancy Association Endorses Peekaboo Baby Gender Early Detection Test

DALLAS, TX / ACCESSWIRE / September 30, 2020 / The American Pregnancy Association (APA), a national health organization committed to promoting reproductive and pregnancy wellness through education, support, advocacy and community awareness โ has officially endorsed Peekabooโข, an early detection test that determines fetal gender using advanced DNA testing. The highly-accurate test, launched by DNA Diagnostics Centerยฎ (DDCยฎ), a global leader in genetic relationship testing, can inform expectant parents of their babyโs gender as early as 7 weeks into pregnancy as opposed to the 18-22 weeks typical for traditional ultrasound gender detection.
โExpecting parents have endless questions about their pregnancies. The most anticipated one is if they are expecting a boy or a girl. DNA Diagnostics Center, makers of Peekabooโข, and their record of delivering premium-quality testing and care are lockstep with our mission to support reproductive and pregnancy wellness,โ said Lynn Handley, president ofย The American Pregnancy Association. โThe American Pregnancy Association recommends Peekabooโข, the new gender-reveal test that will deliver accurate results sooner than anything else on the market because of its simplicity, safety and accuracy in answering the most anticipated question in most pregnancies.โ
โWhile next-generation sequencing is one of the most clinically exacting methodologies available, it is cost-prohibitive for parents primarily interested in an early-gender reveal,โ said Michael Baird, Ph.D., Chief Science Officer at DDC. โWith Peekaboo, our scientists were able to design a highly-accurate test that utilizes cell-free fetal DNA without the complexities and expense of next-generation sequencing.โ
Consumer demand for gender-reveal testing has grown significantly in recent years, with an increasing interest in early detection to better plan for the babyโs arrival. To support this demand, DDC has developed Peekaboo, an at-home test kit, as well as Peekaboo PRO, an in-office kit for healthcare professionals.
โDuring these unprecedented times, milestone events in our life carry even greater meaning and importance,โ said Scott Cramer, DDC President and CEO. โTheย Peekaboo baby gender early detection testย is a natural extension of our portfolio and one that we wanted to ensure has the highest level of performance, whether DNA is collected at home or at the healthcare providerโs office. Having successfully performed over 20 million DNA tests since our inception, we are proud to introduce this exciting new test.โ
Both the at-home Peekaboo and clinical Peekaboo PRO test kits are now available for purchase at peekaboogendertest.com.
