Are you an expecting couple and uncertain about the biological father of the baby?
If yes, then worry no more. DNA Forensics Laboratory Pvt. Ltd. has brought to you an accurate and reliable method of safely confirming the biological paternity of the baby.
A Prenatal Paternity Test (NO SEX DETERMINATION) is an advanced test that doesn’t require any invasive procedure to collect the genetic material from the baby. That’s why the test is safe for the baby in the womb as well as the expecting mother.
So, with our Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity DNA Test, you get the clarity and peace of mind without worrying about your or your precious child’s health.
First Things First: What Exactly Is A Prenatal Paternity Test?
Oftentimes, in cases where either of the couple or both doubt the baby’s biological father due to an unplanned pregnancy, a prenatal paternity test (NO SEX DETERMINATION) may come in handy. The best thing about this test is that it’s completely non-invasive, requiring just a small amount of the mother’s venous blood for the test. From this blood sample, the free-floating fetal DNA is extracted, which serves as the DNA specimen for the baby in the womb. On the other hand, the alleged father gives his cheek swab or blood sample for the test.
Following the DNA specimen collection, experts analyze both through the STR profiling method, which generates unique genetic profiles for both. When these profiles are compared, if there is a 99.99% match probability, it means that the baby and the alleged father are biologically related. If the match probability comes out to be zero, they are declared unrelated.
The report of a Non-invasive prenatal paternity test is as accurate as a regular paternity test. A 99.99% match probability corresponds to a confirmed biological relationship. However, a match probability of zero means that the two are not biologically related.
Safety Profile: Getting a Paternity DNA Test While Pregnant
Older techniques of prenatal paternity DNA testing involved methods such as:
● Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS)
● Amniocentesis
Both of these methods were invasive, required inserting specialized syringes to collect biological samples, and carried the risk to both the mother and the fetus.
On the contrary, modern-day techniques, such as non-invasive prenatal paternity DNA testing, do not need such invasive procedures just to collect the sample. The mother’s blood sample is collected through her veins and serves as the DNA specimen for the baby in the womb.
Who is the Prenatal Paternity DNA Test For?
There are many instances where confirming the biological identity of the alleged father is required while the mother is still pregnant. These may include one or more of the following scenarios or use cases:
● Committed, live-in, and even married couples looking for certainty about the baby’s biological father.
● People who just want an early confirmation of the biological relationship between the fetus and the alleged father.
● Women who want peace of mind and evidence of the biological relationship between the baby in the womb and the alleged father.
● There may be situations where more than one male has been alleged to be the father of the baby in the womb. In such a case, again, prenatal DNA testing for paternity confirmation can be the lifesaver.
● Men who are alleged to be the father of the baby in the womb but are certain that the baby is not his.
● Families where the uncertainty about biological paternity has, or potentially will cause, disagreement or dispute in the family may find a prenatal paternity test useful.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is a prenatal paternity test?
Ans: A prenatal paternity test confirms whether a man is the biological father of an unborn baby by comparing DNA samples taken during pregnancy—accurately and safely. For the fetus’ DNA, a mother’s blood sample is taken, while the alleged father gives cheek swabs or blood.
Q2. How does a DNA test while pregnant work?
Ans: The lab extracts fetal DNA from the mother’s blood, compares it with the father’s DNA, and determines paternity with the highest accuracy.
Q3. Is a prenatal paternity test safe?
Ans: Yes. The non-invasive method involves only a mother’s blood sample and father’s cheek swab, making it entirely safe for both mother and baby.
Q4. How early can you do a prenatal paternity DNA test?
Ans: You can take the test as early as the 9th week of pregnancy, offering early clarity during gestation.
Q5. How accurate is a prenatal paternity test?
Ans: When done properly by a certified provider, the test results are highly reliable. A 99.99% match probability in the report confirms the biological relationship. A 0% probability of match between the two DNA profiles shows that the alleged father and the baby in the womb are not related.
Q6. How much does a prenatal paternity DNA test cost in India?
Ans: The price of a non-invasive prenatal paternity test is around ₹1,30,000 INR, owing to the complex DNA extraction and analysis process.
Q7. Is a prenatal paternity DNA test legal in India?
Ans: Yes—non-invasive prenatal paternity tests are legal for personal use. Legal-grade testing must follow specific collection protocols if intended for court or official matters.
Please note: Prenatal Paternity DNA Testing Does Not Include Prenatal Sex Determination of the Fetus (Baby) in the Womb. We condemn such illegal and inhumane practices.
Q8. Can a prenatal paternity test be used in court?
Ans: Only legal-grade testing (with verified identity and strict protocols, like a Chain of Custody) is admissible in court. DNA Forensics Laboratory offers both personal and, if ordered by the court, legal versions of the test.
Q9. How long does it take to get prenatal paternity DNA test results?
Ans: Results are typically ready within 8–9 business days from when the lab receives the samples.
Q10. Can I do a prenatal paternity test without the father?
Ans: No—testing requires both the mother’s blood sample and the alleged father’s DNA so a proper comparison can be made.
Q11. What samples are needed for a non‑invasive prenatal paternity DNA test?
Ans: You’ll need a small blood sample from the mother (contains fetal DNA) and a cheek swab or blood sample from the alleged father.
Q12. Where can I get a prenatal paternity DNA test in India?
Ans: DNA Forensics Laboratory Pvt. Ltd., with its extensive network of 400+ local and international sample collection centers, 10+ years of experience, and an excellent record of customer satisfaction, is ideal for a non-invasive prenatal paternity test.
Q13. Is my prenatal DNA test report confidential?
Ans: Yes. At DNA Forensics Laboratory, confidentiality is strictly maintained—your results and personal information are kept confidential.
Q14. What are the risks of invasive prenatal paternity tests?
Ans: Invasive tests like amniocentesis or CVS carry risks like miscarriage and discomfort. That’s why non-invasive prenatal testing is preferred for its safety and high accuracy.
