What is PGT?
Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) describes a range of genetic tests performed on embryos created via IVF prior to transfer.
PGT helps identifying embryos with genetic abnormalities, thereby increasing the chance of pregnancy, reducing the risk of miscarriage, and preventing the transmission of inherited genetic disorders. This advanced screening ensures that only genetically healthy embryos are selected for implantation.
Benefits of PGT
By providing critical genetic information about embryos before pregnancy begins, PGT offers several key clinical advantages for couples undergoing IVF.
PGT-A
(Aneuploidy)
PGT-A screens for embryos with the correct number of chromosomes (euploid). Embryos with missing or extra chromosomes (aneuploidy) often fail to implant or result in miscarriage. PGT-A is particularly beneficial for women over 35 or those with a history of pregnancy loss.
Who should consider PGT-A?
Advanced Maternal Age (35+)
Recurrent Implantation Failure
Recurrent Pregnancy Loss
PGT-M & PGT-SR
PGT-M (Monogenic): Tests for specific single-gene disorders (like Cystic Fibrosis or Thalassemia) when there is a known family history.
PGT-SR (Structural Rearrangements): Screens for chromosomal structural abnormalities (translocations) in parents that can cause unbalanced embryos.
