Pre-Genetic Testing (PGT) for IVF

For patients undergoing IVF, ensuring the transfer of healthy embryos can significantly increase the chances of a successful pregnancy. Pre-genetic testing (PGT) is a breakthrough in reproductive medicine that helps identify embryos with the best chances of leading to a healthy birth. This article explains why Panama Fertility is the preferred clinic for Bahamian patients seeking PGT as part of their fertility journey.

What is Pre-Genetic Testing (PGT)?

Pre-genetic testing (PGT) is a procedure performed during IVF to screen embryos for genetic abnormalities. It involves taking a small sample from the embryo and analyzing it for chromosomal irregularities or genetic mutations.

Types of PGT Offered at Panama Fertility

  • PGT-A (Aneuploidy Testing): Detects chromosomal abnormalities to ensure only healthy embryos are implanted.
  • PGT-M (Monogenic Disorder Testing): Screens for specific inherited genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis.
  • PGT-SR (Structural Rearrangements): Identifies translocations or inversions in chromosomes.

Benefits of PGT for Bahamian Patients

  • Higher Success Rates: Improves the chances of implantation and reduces the risk of miscarriage.
  • Healthy Pregnancies: Reduces the likelihood of genetic disorders in the baby.
  • Personalized Care: Helps patients make informed decisions about which embryos to transfer
