we understand the emotional journey couples undergo when considering assisted reproductive technologies to build their families. Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders (PGT-M) offers hope and empowerment to those at risk of passing on inherited genetic conditions to their children. With our advanced reproductive technology services, we aim to provide comprehensive support and guidance throughout the PGT-M process.
PGT-M, also known as Pre-Implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), is a groundbreaking technique that allows us to identify genetic abnormalities in embryos before implantation during an IVF cycle. This innovative procedure is particularly beneficial for couples who carry genetic mutations responsible for monogenic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, Huntington’s disease, and many others.
How does PGT-M work?
The PGT-M process begins with standard IVF treatment, where eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and fertilized with sperm in a laboratory setting. After fertilization, embryos are cultured for a few days until they reach the blastocyst stage. At this point, a small biopsy is performed on each embryo, and the cells are analyzed to identify genetic abnormalities associated with the specific monogenic disorder.
Why choose PGT-M?
PGT-M offers several advantages for couples facing the risk of passing on genetic conditions to their offspring:
Increased pregnancy success rates: By selecting unaffected embryos for transfer, the chances of a successful pregnancy and healthy baby are significantly enhanced.
Reduced risk of genetic disorders: PGT-M enables couples to avoid the emotional and financial burdens associated with the birth of a child affected by a severe genetic condition.
Family planning with confidence: PGT-M provides couples with valuable information about their embryos, empowering them to make informed decisions about their family’s future.
Ethical considerations: PGT-M allows for the selection of embryos free from genetic abnormalities while respecting the principles of reproductive autonomy and informed consent.
