PGTA testing helps in screening the embryos for genetic abnormalities by identifying chromosomal abnormalities or specific inherited disorders. If you are struggling with unplanned miscarriages, IVF failures, and have parents or siblings with hereditary conditions, consult the experts at Pristyn Care.

Preimplantation genetic testing is one of the most advanced methods for detecting genetic defects in embryos produced through in vitro fertilization (IUI or ICSI). This process entails taking a small number of cells from an embryo’s trophectoderm, or outer layer, in order to examine them for chromosomal abnormalities or to determine the prevalence of a specific genetic mutation linked to a number of diseases. The purpose of PGT is to enable your doctor to choose embryos for transfer that are anticipated to be free of chromosome abnormalities or a particular genetic issue. Before becoming pregnant, this test gives patients the ability to lower their child’s risk of inheriting a genetic condition.

There are three different kinds of PGTA testing. Each type searches for distinct kinds of genetic structural alterations in an embryo:
The choice to decide upon the PGTA testing is influenced by your family or personal history of health conditions. For instance, you might choose PGT-M if you are aware that you or your biological partner are carrier for a single-gene disorder like cystic fibrosis. Consult your physician and/or genetic counsellor about your objectives and concerns before selecting PGT and the particular types you wish to have done.
Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis is the traditional name for pre-implantation genetic testing. It is a laboratory technique used in conjunction with In vitro fertilization (IVF) to lower the chance of transferring hereditary disorders. Some of the most common reasons for undergoing the PGD are structural chromosome abnormalities in one or both parents and some single-gene disorders (including sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, and polycystic kidney disease).

Also known as IVF genetic testing, it is not a mandatory test for patients undergoing IVF.
Talk to your fertility specialist about your health history and find out if you need preimplantation genetic testing for IVF.
PGT-A test costs may vary greatly from patient to patient. The number of embryos to test, the frequency of IVF cycles required (egg extraction, fertilization, testing, and embryo transfer), the pattern of inheritance of the genetic condition, and the equipment needed for PGT-A testing affect the treatment cost. Additionally, the overall package becomes more expensive if further tests are needed or if testing multiple family members is necessary to obtain a meaningful result. The cost of preimplantation genetic testing varies according to your age and the number of embryos you have.
PGT test IVF is performed through the following steps
The embryo genetic testing cost varies depending on several factors, including the type of PgtA testing, lab and technology used, location of clinic(Delhi, Mumbai), skills and expertise of the doctor, etc. Consult our experts for an individualized cost plan.
Genetic screening in IVF works through a process of testing the embryos created through the IVF procedure against chromosomal abnormalities or particular genetic mutations.
PGTA identifies the chromosomal abnormality and helps in transferring only the genetically normal embryos. The testing reduces the risk of miscarriages and the chance of inheriting illnesses, eventually increasing the chances of pregnancy.
