Prevent birth defects in your children

Many birth defects can be prevented with Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) as part of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). During this process, an embryo’s cells are screened for abnormalities in up to nine chromosomes. A testing period of two days is required and when it is completed, the laboratory can select a normal embryo to be transferred into the uterus.
