Pre-Implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD)
What is a Pre-Implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD)?
Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is a cutting-edge technique used in conjunction with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to assess the genetic health of embryos before implantation. This helps couples increase their chances of a healthy pregnancy and avoid the potential heartache of carrying a pregnancy affected by a known genetic condition.
How does PGD work?
IVF Cycle: Embryos are created through In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), where eggs and sperm are combined in a laboratory setting.
Embryo Biopsy: At an early stage, a few cells (blastomeres) are carefully removed from each embryo for genetic analysis.
Genetic Testing: Advanced techniques analyze the removed cells for chromosomal abnormalities or specific genetic conditions.
Implantation of Healthy Embryos: Only embryos found to be genetically healthy are then transferred back into the woman's uterus, increasing the likelihood of a successful pregnancy.
Why Choose PGD?
Reduces risk of miscarriage: PGD identifies chromosomally abnormal embryos, often the cause of pregnancy loss.
Increases live birth rates: Choosing genetically healthy embryos leads to higher chances of a successful pregnancy and live birth.
