'PGS' - Pre-implantation Genetic Screening
PGS checks the number of chromosomes in each blastocyst and can be useful for:
- women 36 and older with good ovarian reserve,
- people who have had recurrent miscarriage,
- people not pregnant despite the transfer of several embryos – PGS may uncover a higher than expected
chromosome abnormality rate - patients who are willing to go through more than one egg retrieval cycle to obtain a normal embryo
