At Mannat Fertility, we realise that amongst many couples, the desire to have a healthy child is accompanied by the fear of its congenital defects. PGD, the method of advanced reproductive technology, identifies abnormalities in the embryos used during IVF, thus avoiding such defective embryos from entering the uterus.

What Is Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD)?

A PGD is a selective test conducted on IVF embryos created. Actual removal of a few cells is done very painstakingly out of each of the embryos and examined under a microscope to check certain genetic, or at least chromosomal abnormalities. Only healthy embryos are then singled out to be transferred into the uterus of the woman.

  • Prevent the passing on of genetic diseases.
  • Increase the likelihood of the success of pregnancy.
  • Minimise the chances of having a miscarriage because of chromosomal errors.

GD can be viewed as one of the most developed instruments in modern fertility treatment, and couples with a genetic disease background can particularly enjoy its contributions.
