Short Description

Spontaneous miscarriages in human pregnancies are documented to be highly associated with chromosomal aneuploidy. PGS attempts to identify euploid embryos for uterine transfer and thereby both increase implantation rates and decrease miscarriage rates associated with IVF.

PreTest Information

Submit biopsied Embryo cells in a unique tube available from LPL. In case of multiple embryos being tested, submit a separate line for each source. Ship froze in special transport containers available. A duly filled Preimplantation Genetic Screening Consent form (Form 23) is mandatory. Sample to be collected & dispatched with prior appointment.

Detail Description

PREIMPLANTATION GENETIC SCREENING (PGS) Test cost INR:16380 symptoms diagnosis

DNA Labs India offers Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) test for couples who are planning to undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. This test is designed to identify genetic abnormalities in embryos before they are implanted in the uterus. PGS can help identify embryos that have a higher chance of developing into a healthy baby, reducing the risk of miscarriage and genetic disorders.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

PGS is recommended for couples who are planning to undergo IVF treatment and have a history of genetic disorders in the family. Women who have experienced recurrent miscarriages or failed IVF cycles may also benefit from PGS testing. The test is done on cells taken from the embryo during the IVF process.

PGS can detect chromosomal abnormalities, such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Klinefelter syndrome. It can also identify single gene disorders, such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and Tay-Sachs disease. By identifying these genetic abnormalities, PGS can help couples make informed decisions about which embryos to implant, increasing their chances of a successful pregnancy.

Test Cost

The cost of PGS testing at DNA Labs India is INR 16380. This includes the cost of the test, as well as genetic counseling to help couples understand their results and make informed decisions about their treatment options.

Conclusion

Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) is a valuable tool for couples who are planning to undergo IVF treatment. By identifying genetic abnormalities in embryos before they are implanted, PGS can help reduce the risk of miscarriage and genetic disorders, and increase the chances of a successful pregnancy. If you are considering IVF treatment, talk to your doctor about whether PGS testing is right for you.
