About PGS / PGD

Advanced Genetic Screening for Healthy Embryo Selection

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT), previously known as PGS/PGD, is an advanced technique used during IVF to screen embryos for genetic or chromosomal abnormalities before transfer.

A few cells are carefully analyzed from the embryo to identify healthy, chromosomally normal embryos, helping improve implantation success and reduce the risk of genetic disorders or miscarriage.

Benefits of PGS / PGD

Preimplantation Genetic Testing helps improve pregnancy outcomes by ensuring the transfer of chromosomally normal embryos with higher implantation potential and reduced risks.

Improved Implantation Rates

Increases the chances of successful embryo implantation by selecting genetically normal embryos that are more likely to attach and develop properly.

Reduced Miscarriage Risk

Helps reduce the risk of miscarriage by avoiding the transfer of embryos with chromosomal abnormalities that may affect pregnancy progression.

Healthy Pregnancy Outcomes

Supports the development of a healthy pregnancy by ensuring only genetically screened embryos with normal chromosomal patterns are selected for transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is PGS/PGD?

It is a genetic testing technique used to screen embryos before implantation during IVF.

How is PGT different from IVF?

PGT is an additional step within IVF to assess embryo genetics before transfer.

Is the procedure safe?

Yes, it is a safe and widely used laboratory procedure when performed by experts.

Who should consider PGT?

Couples with genetic risks, repeated IVF failures, or recurrent miscarriages.

Does PGT guarantee pregnancy?

It improves success rates but does not guarantee pregnancy.

Can PGT prevent genetic disorders?

It helps identify embryos without specific genetic abnormalities.

Is testing done on all embryos?

Testing is performed on selected embryos based on clinical indication.

When is PGT recommended?

It is advised after evaluation based on medical and genetic factors.
