Why Genetics in Fertility Care?
Genetic factors are often the "missing piece" in understanding infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss. Our services are designed to:
- Identify the underlying cause of conception difficulties.
- Select the healthiest embryos for transfer during IVF.
- Reduce the risk of passing on hereditary conditions.
- Improve IVF success rates by ensuring chromosomal health.
