Pre-implantation Genetic Testing(PGT) is a revolutionary prenatal testing technique. Designed primarily for couples at a significant risk of passing inherited diseases to their offspring, PGT allows for the identification and prevention of genetic disorders in the very early stages of pregnancy.
Choosing PGT offers couples the peace of mind by significantly reducing the stresses associated with terminations or miscarriages due to genetic abnormalities. This early detection method ensures a safer and more controlled pregnancy journey.
Chromosome abnormalities are common genetic disorders that often result in reproductive issues, congenital malformations, and mental retardation. These abnormalities can either be due to an irregular number of chromosomes or a structural defect in one or more chromosomes. Pre-implantation genetic testing for monogenic or single-gene disorders (PGT-M) can currently be used to identify over 1,700 genetic conditions and is a powerful tool within the PGT process that is instrumental in identifying and addressing these chromosome-related concerns.
Our clinic specialises in the prevention of Thalassemia and Sickle Cell diseases through the use of PGT. With a high success rate, this focused genetic screening allows prospective parents to plan confidently for a healthy pregnancy.
Prior to commencing treatment, we urge all couples to undergo comprehensive genetic fertility counselling to understand the implications and outcomes of the screening process.
