Embryos with the wrong number of chromosomes usually do not implant, or start to implant but result in a miscarriage. PGT-A identifies the embryos most likely to implant normally so that the transfer of a single embryo is more likely successful. Especially for women over 35 and those with recurrent pregnancy losses, PGT-A allows us to transfer just one healthy embryo with the best chance of pregnancy and the lowest chance of miscarriage.
Current evidence suggests that the biopsy for PGT does not harm the embryo. A very small number of cells are removed from an area that will eventually grow into the placenta. The inner cell mass, which is the part of the embryo that will become the baby, is not touched.
PGT-M may be appropriate when intended parents are at high risk of having a child with a serious genetic disease, such as BRCA, cystic fibrosis, or muscular dystrophy. If family history or genetic carrier screening suggest high risk, we will refer you to a genetic counselor to discuss next steps.
