With rapid advancements in technology, more and more families are turning to IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) to realize their dreams of parenthood. This technique not only offers hope to those facing infertility but also provides a scientific solution for parents concerned about passing on genetic diseases to their offspring. In this context, selecting the right reproductive technology and professional medical team has become a crucial step in every family’s journey toward conception.

 

Genetic diseases are often caused by gene mutations. While carrying a mutation does not necessarily mean the individual will show symptoms, it can still be passed to the next generation. There are various types of genetic mutations, including single-gene, multifactorial, and chromosomal disorders. Everyone may inherit gene mutations from one or both parents, with some mutations presenting at birth and others potentially emerging at a later stage of life.

 

For families with a history of genetic diseases, genetic screening is an important step. Through genetic counseling and testing, individuals can assess potential genetic risks and take appropriate measures. Particularly when opting for IVF in the USA, Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A) has become a popular choice among many families. PGT-A can not only assess the overall chromosomal status of embryos but also identify potential genetic abnormalities, thereby significantly increasing the success rate of embryo implantation.

 

At IVF USA, we recommend patients considering IVF in the USA to use PGT-A testing. For women over the age of 37, PGT-A is especially crucial, as the risk of genetic abnormalities in eggs increases with age. By screening for healthy embryos, we can reduce the risk of implantation failure or miscarriage due to chromosomal abnormalities, thus enhancing the chances of a successful pregnancy.

 

In recent years, the continuous advancements in IVF technology have led to increasing support from research and clinical data for the application of genetic testing in assisted reproduction. This not only offers a safer option for families hoping to avoid passing genetic diseases to the next generation but also provides greater assurance of success in IVF.
