What is PGD?

    Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is a reproductive technique that allows for the genetic testing of embryos before implantation. This enables expecting parents to choose embryos with healthy genetic profiles, reducing the risk of transferring an embryo with genetic abnormalities. As a result, PGD can help promote a healthier and more successful pregnancy outcome.

      Preimplantation Genetic Testing Types

          PGD for Genetic Disorders:
          This type of PGD tests for specific genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, Huntington's disease, and muscular dystrophy.

          PGD for Chromosomal Abnormalities:
          This tests for chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, and trisomy 13.

          PGD for Inherited Traits:
          This aims to test for inherited traits such as red hair, brown or blue eyes, freckles, and height.

          PGD for Genetic Mutations:
          This tests for genetic mutations, such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations (associated with breast cancer) and the APC mutation (associated with colon cancer).

          PGD for Sex Selection:
          This tests for the sex of the embryo, allowing parents to choose the sex of their child.

          Why Choose PGD

              Medical Reasons:

              Couples who are carriers of a genetic disorder or have a family history of sex-linked diseases may choose to undergo PGD to test their embryos and reduce the risk of passing on the condition to their child.

                  Recurrent Miscarriages:

                  Couples who have experienced multiple miscarriages without a known medical cause may choose PGD to select a healthy embryo for implantation and reduce the risk of another miscarriage.

                      Family Planning:

                      Couples who have multiple children of the same gender may choose PGD for sex selection to conceive a child of the opposite gender.

                          Past family history:

                          A family history of a genetic condition may opt for PGT-A to screen embryos and select one without the condition, thereby preventing its transmission to their offspring.
