What is PGT (Preimplantation Genetic Testing)?

PGT is a test that checks embryos obtained through IVF for genetic diseases and chromosomal abnormalities.
It helps select embryos for transfer after confirming the presence or absence of abnormalities.

*Currently performed for patients with recurrent implantation failure and habitual miscarriage, and does not replace prenatal diagnosis.

Precautions

Q. Are there any precautions before and after the procedure?

Prenatal testing is recommended even when pregnancy is confirmed after PGT.

In cases of mosaicism where normal cells and chromosomally abnormal cells coexist in the embryo, there may be differences between test results and actual embryo status.
