What is a Triple Marker?
The Triple Marker test is a second-trimester screening blood test, done at 15-20 weeks, that measures three markers: AFP, hCG and unconjugated estriol (uE3). Combined with your age and gestational age, it estimates the risk of Down syndrome, Edwards syndrome and open neural-tube defects such as spina bifida. Like all screening, it gives a risk, not a diagnosis.
What it measures
AFP (Alpha-fetoprotein)
High levels can indicate an open neural-tube defect; low levels shift chromosomal risk.
hCG
Pregnancy hormone; its level contributes to the risk calculation.
Estriol (uE3)
A pregnancy hormone from the placenta and baby; low levels can raise risk.
Why take this test?
It is used for second-trimester screening, especially when the first-trimester (double marker) screen was missed. AFP also helps flag open neural-tube defects, which the first-trimester test does not assess.
- Screening between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy
- Missed or unavailable first-trimester screening
- Maternal age or family history of chromosomal conditions
- To additionally screen for neural-tube defects
Normal reference ranges
| Parameter | Healthy reference range |
|---|---|
| AFP / hCG / uE3 | Each reported as MoM (≈0.5 - 2.0 is typical) |
| Result | A combined risk ratio for each condition (low-risk or high-risk) |
Ranges are indicative for adults. Your report carries the lab-specific reference range and is reviewed by a LabONE pathologist; always interpret results with your doctor.
