SEX DETERMINATION BY PGT(PGD) METHOD

IVF methods are improving day by day and now offer many more opportunities to couples who want to have children. Millions of people who cannot have a baby naturally can realize their dream of becoming a mother and father thanks to IVF treatmentVF methods are improving by day and now offer many more opportunities to cories. With medical developments, it has become possible not only to ensure pregnancy in IVF treatment, but also embryo health and gender selection. At this point, one of the most preferred methods is PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Testing) method. Genetic testing is performed by taking a small biopsy from the embryos before they are transferred to the expectant mother using the PGD method. As a result of this test, it is determined how healthy the embryos are and embryos at risk of genetic diseases are eliminated. At the same time, the sexes of embryos can also be learned by this method. Thus, couples have the chance to both choose the healthiest embryo and have a baby of the gender they want. The selected healthy and desired gender embryo is fertilized with sperm taken from the father and transferred to the mother's womb. In this way, while the success rate of pregnancy increases, expectant mothers and fathers can have children with peace of mind. Today, in vitro fertilization centers, especially in Cyprus, offer reliable solutions to couples both for healthy embryo selection and gender determination using the PGD method.

Disease Diagnosis with PGT (PGD) Method

The possibility of many diseases or chromosomal disorders occurring can be predicted in advance by determining the gender with the PGT method, other than gender selection.

• PGT is an embryo genetics screening test that increases the success rate of IVF treatment and can be performed in IVF centers.

• PGT reduces the risk of miscarriage and ensures a healthy pregnancy.

• PGT reduces the chances of medical termination of pregnancy.

• Parents-to-be can realize their desire for a girl or a boy by determining the gender with PGT.

• Healthy embryos are biopsied by taking 1 or 2 embryo cells and then subjected to genetic testing, and the healthiest embryos are transferred to the mother's uterus.

• The cells tested in genetic laboratories are reported according to gender preference and the transfer to the mother's womb is successfully carried out.

What is PGD?

PGT; Preimplantation genetic diagnosis is the determination of whether the embryos to be used in IVF methods have any health problems before the IVF method. With the samples taken from the embryos by biopsy, it is determined whether there is a problem before embryo donation. The preimplantation genetic diagnosis method is used in pregnancies with a low risk of miscarriage, parents with hereditary diseases and a risk of chromosomal diseases. In addition, this method is also used for healthy and desired results in pregnant women over the age of 35 and in cases where gender preference is desired. After all these tests and examinations, the transfer of embryos created under healthy conditions is made into the mother's uterus, increasing the possibility of pregnancy. PGT is also a method applied after unsuccessful IVF methods. Cyprus IVF Center successfully applies it.
