X chromosome data indeterminate

I just received my NIPT results from Quest. This is my first time doing the test through Quest - with my first two kids, my OB’s office used another lab. I am 35 and was 12+2 at the time of the blood draw. I chose to not learn the gender of my baby. Everything looks normal in my results except for this:

“The X chromosome data for this sample is indeterminate with regards to the presence of a fetal sex chromosome abnormality due to a decrease in X chromosome material. Follow-up genetic counseling with discussion of follow-up screening and/or diagnostic testing is recommended. Irreversible pregnancy management decisions should not be based solely on these results.”

I am really trying not to spiral, but I feel incredibly confused and scared right now. Of course it’s a holiday weekend so who knows when I will hear back from my OB’s office. I’m not sure what I’m looking for right now, but I’m just so scared. I found this subreddit and just wanted to post in case anyone has had something similar happen. The results don’t mention Turner Syndrome at all, but as I’m googling and reading different posts here, I guess that could be a possible outcome.
