Overview
Science that Safeguards Tomorrow
Genetic testing and embryo evaluation play a crucial role in ensuring healthy pregnancies and reducing the risks of inherited conditions. With advanced techniques like PGT and NICS, embryos can be screened for chromosomal or genetic abnormalities, improving IVF success rates and supporting informed decisions for aspiring parents.

Precision at the Very Beginning of Life
PGT-A screens embryos for chromosomal abnormalities like extra or missing chromosomes. By selecting chromosomally normal embryos, this test reduces miscarriage risk and increases the chances of a healthy pregnancy, especially for women of advanced maternal age or couples with recurrent IVF failures.
PGT-M is designed for couples at risk of passing on specific genetic disorders like cystic fibrosis, thalassemia, or sickle cell anaemia. It allows only healthy embryos to be chosen for transfer, ensuring that inherited single-gene conditions are not passed on to future generations.
PGT-SR is recommended for couples with chromosomal rearrangements, such as translocations or inversions, which can cause recurrent miscarriages or implantation failures. The test ensures the selection of embryos with balanced chromosomal structures, offering a better chance at achieving a healthy, full-term pregnancy.
NICS analyses embryo culture fluid to detect chromosomal abnormalities, eliminating the need for embryo biopsy. This non-invasive technique improves embryo safety while providing critical genetic insights, supporting higher success rates in IVF with minimal risk to the developing embryos.

Your Genetic Questions,
Expertly Answered
Couples with a history of miscarriages, advanced maternal age, known genetic disorders, or repeated IVF failures are ideal candidates for genetic testing and embryo evaluation.
Traditional PGT involves removing a few cells, which is safe under expert care. Non-invasive methods like NICS eliminate any risk, ensuring embryo safety.
While it significantly reduces the risk of abnormalities, no test can guarantee a 100% healthy baby. It maximises the chances of a successful pregnancy outcome.
No, it is recommended only for couples with specific risks or conditions. Your fertility specialist will guide you on whether testing is necessary.
Yes, it adds to treatment costs, but many couples consider it a worthwhile investment for the assurance of healthier outcomes and reduced risk of failed cycles.
