Bringing a healthy child into the world is the dream of every aspiring parent. At Ekam Fertility, we understand that the journey to parenthood sometimes involves unique challenges. Our advanced PGD and PGS testing services are designed to support couples at risk of genetic disorders or chromosomal abnormalities, offering them a higher chance of successful, full-term pregnancies.
Modern fertility treatments have evolved far beyond traditional methods. Today, with technologies like Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) and preimplantation genetic screening (PGS), we can screen embryos before implantation — giving couples greater clarity, confidence, and hope. Whether you’re experiencing recurrent IVF failures, unexplained miscarriages, or have a family history of genetic conditions, PGD and PGS testing can help you make informed decisions and improve your outcomes.
🔬 What Is PGD Testing?
PGD testing, short for Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis, is a powerful technique that allows fertility specialists to analyze embryos for specific genetic conditions before implantation. Couples who are carriers of hereditary diseases such as cystic fibrosis, thalassemia, Tay-Sachs, or Huntington’s disease often consider PGD testing to prevent the transmission of these conditions to their child.
During PGD testing, cells from an embryo created via IVF are biopsied and analyzed in our advanced lab. Only embryos without the identified genetic mutations are selected for transfer, ensuring the best possible health outcome for the baby.
At Ekam Fertility, we use the most sophisticated equipment to deliver accurate PGD testing results, empowering couples with peace of mind and the best chance of a healthy pregnancy.
🧬 What Is PGS or Preimplantation Genetic Screening?
Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS), now more broadly categorized under pre implantation genetic testing (PGT), is used to evaluate the chromosomal integrity of embryos. Unlike PGD, which looks for specific genetic conditions, preimplantation genetic screening checks whether the embryo has the correct number of chromosomes — which is essential for proper development and successful pregnancy.
Chromosomal abnormalities are a leading cause of IVF failure and miscarriage, particularly in women above 35. By using pre implantation genetic testing, our team at Ekam Fertility can significantly reduce the risk of transferring embryos with chromosomal defects. This enhances your chances of implantation and reduces the emotional burden of unsuccessful IVF cycles.
With advanced PGS testing services, we help couples avoid heartbreak and take a step closer to their dreams.
🧪 The PGT Advantage
PGT testing (Preimplantation Genetic Testing) is an umbrella term that includes both PGD testing and preimplantation genetic screening. Whether you’re looking to detect inherited genetic conditions or avoid chromosomal abnormalities, PGT testing offers a highly effective, science-backed approach.
At Ekam Fertility, our embryology and genetic analysis team ensures:
- Accurate detection of single-gene disorders via Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis
- Reliable screening for aneuploidies (abnormal chromosome number) through preimplantation genetic screening
- Comprehensive, safe embryo biopsy and preservation methods
- Individualized fertility care plans tailored to your medical background
When it comes to PGD and PGS testing, we take care of every detail — from embryo culture and biopsy to in-depth genetic evaluation and post-testing consultation.
