Can this code be used for prenatal testing? From what I'm reading it can be used for carrier status screening, but can that patient be pregnancy too?

genetic counseling

n.
The counseling of individuals, and of prospective parents regarding their offspring, on the probability of inheriting genetic diseases and on their associated diagnosis and treatment.

I find this definition on genetic counseling and it makes it sound like this code should be used on a patient who isn't pregnant.

Can someone help me understand this?

Thank you,
April
