PGS: PRE-IMPLANTATION GENETIC TESTING (EMBRYO) - 9
PGS-9 screens embryos for nine common chromosomal abnormalities. It helps increase IVF success by selecting embryos that are genetically healthy.
PGS: PRE-IMPLANTATION GENETIC TESTING (EMBRYO) - 9 Test in Mangaluru Overview
No special preparations needed
- Specimen Type (embryo Biopsy) - 9
Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) Embryo 9 is a specialized test performed on embryos created via in vitro fertilization (IVF) to check for numerical chromosome abnormalities before implantation.
PGS is conducted to improve the chances of a successful pregnancy by ensuring only embryos with a normal chromosomal count are implanted. It is particularly beneficial for couples with a history of recurrent miscarriages, advanced maternal age, or known chromosomal translocations.
A few cells are biopsied from the developing embryo on day five or six after fertilization. These cells undergo genetic analysis using techniques like next-generation sequencing (NGS) to determine chromosomal integrity.
A normal embryo is more likely to result in a successful pregnancy, while an abnormal result suggests chromosomal defects that could lead to implantation failure or miscarriage.
Based on the results, the healthiest embryo is selected for transfer, improving the likelihood of a successful pregnancy and reducing the risk of chromosomal disorders.
