PGT · Embryo Genetic Testing
PGT — transfer only the healthiest embryo.
Pre-implantation Genetic Testing screens embryos for chromosomal and single-gene disorders before transfer — boosting implantation, reducing miscarriage, and reducing risk of genetic disease.

Overview
An overview of PGT — Genetic Testing of Embryos
Pre-implantation Genetic Testing (PGT) examines a small biopsy of trophectoderm cells from a Day-5 or Day-6 blastocyst — without disturbing the embryo's inner cell mass — to detect chromosomal abnormalities (PGT-A), specific single-gene disorders (PGT-M), or structural rearrangements (PGT-SR).
Who benefits from PGT?
Eligibility criteria we evaluate at the first consultation.
Advanced maternal age (≥ 35 yrs)
Higher rate of chromosomally abnormal embryos.
Recurrent IVF failure
Two or more failed embryo transfers.
Recurrent pregnancy loss
Two or more miscarriages — many due to chromosomal issues.
Known genetic carrier status
Beta thalassemia, sickle cell, cystic fibrosis, etc.
Severe male factor
Higher rate of sperm DNA fragmentation.
Family balancing (where legal)
Subject to local regulations.
How PGT works
PGT adds 4 steps to a standard IVF/ICSI cycle.
- 1
IVF + ICSI cycle
Week 1–3Standard stimulation, retrieval, fertilisation (ICSI preferred for PGT).
- 2
Blastocyst culture
Day 5–6Embryos cultured to expanded blastocyst stage.
- 3
Trophectoderm biopsy
Day 5–65–10 cells gently extracted from the trophectoderm — does not disturb the future baby.
- 4
Vitrification + DNA shipping
Day 5–6Embryos frozen; biopsy DNA sent to certified genetics lab.
- 5
Genetic analysis
10–14 daysNGS (next-generation sequencing) for chromosomal analysis.
- 6
Frozen embryo transfer
Next cycleOnly euploid (chromosomally normal) embryos transferred.
