Preimplantation Genetic Testing

         Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT-A) is a pre-procedure to verify & test the chosen embryos during IVF before their implantation into the uterus. Naturally, Everyone has 46 chromosomes in 23 pairs and having too many or too few of them can lead to problems like miscarriage, failed implantation, and certain conditions like Down syndrome. PGT-A helps doctors to identify embryos that they have the right number of chromosomes called euploid, so they can transfer the ones most likely to lead to a healthy pregnancy.

PGT-A isn’t done in every IVF cycle—it’s often recommended for people who:

People over 35 (chromosome issues are more common as people ) Been through multiple unsuccessful IVF rounds. With an issue with Male Infertility. need to do a single embryo transfer to avoid twins but still have a high success rate.

Our Procedure for Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT-A) Will Include:

• In a lab, Eggs are retrieved and fertilized with sperm.
• embryos are grown for about 5-7 days, until it's reach the Blastocyst Stage.
• From the outer layer of the embryo, a few cells are taken; these cells become the placenta instead of the baby.
• To find out if the embryo has the correct number of chromosomes, cells are transported to a laboratory.
• Embryos are kept frozen while you wait for results (usually about a week or two).
• A chromosomally normal embryo is transplanted during an IVF round.
