Description
Prenatal & Maternal DHA Test
DHA is a vital Omega-3 fatty acid that supports the healthy development of your baby’s brain—both during pregnancy and through breastfeeding. This test measures DHA levels in either blood (prenatal) or breast milk (maternal), providing personalised insights based on your current life stage.
DHA levels fluctuate depending on dietary intake. For pregnant women, a blood DHA level of 5% or higher is associated with reduced risk of early preterm birth. For breastfeeding mothers, a breast milk DHA level of at least 0.32% is recommended to meet your baby’s cognitive and visual development needs.
Understanding your DHA status allows you to fine-tune your nutrition or supplementation to safely raise your levels in just 2–3 months—supporting both you and your baby at every stage.
