PGT-M Process

PGT-M is a genetic testing technique designed to identify if there is a single-gene disorder(s) in embryos created through in vitro fertilization (IVF). These disorders, which include conditions such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Huntington’s disease, are usually caused by mutations in a single gene. By testing embryos for these genetic abnormalities before implantation, couples can select and transfer only those embryos that are free from the targeted disorder (genetic variant), avoiding the risk of passing it on to their children.
