PREIMPLANTATION GENETIC TESTING (PGT)
Preimplantation Genetic Testing is extremely important for couples who are at high risk of passing genetic diseases on to their children, as the treatment enables the detection of various abnormalities in fertilized embryos before they are implanted into the uterus. In other words, PGT prevents embryos carrying genetic or chromosomal disorders from being used in an attempt to start a family.
The PGT technique, which is currently fundamental in some IVF/ICSI treatments, takes place in 3 stages.
It is a comprehensive and detailed procedure. All genetic diseases and chromosomal abnormalities (such as trisomy 21, for example) can be detected through PGT with high precision and effectiveness.
PGT is recommended for people with a uterine age over 35 years, patients with a history of multiple miscarriages, patients who may pass on genetic diseases and chromosomal abnormalities, and in cases of repeated implantation failures during the IVF/ICSI process.
