Peace of Mind Before Pregnancy
Your Path to Parenthood. Tailored Genetic Testing Solutions, Backed by Expertise and Compassion with Midwest Fertility Center.
Planning a family is an exciting time, but it can also come with uncertainties.
Preimplantation Genetic DiagnosisYou might have concerns about inherited conditions or a family history of genetic diseases. Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) offers a powerful tool for couples seeking a more informed approach to family building.
Specialized Techniques
Preimplantation Genetic DiagnosisPGD is a specialized technique used in conjunction with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to identify genetic abnormalities in embryos before pregnancy (Explain the Solution). During IVF, eggs are fertilized with sperm in a laboratory dish. A small sample of cells is then extracted from each developing embryo. This sample undergoes advanced genetic testing to identify specific gene mutations or chromosomal abnormalities linked to known inherited conditions.

How PGD can empower your family planning journey
Imagine the joy of building a family with greater peace of mind, knowing you've explored all available options. PGD can be a valuable tool on your path to parenthood.
Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis
Reduced Risk of Genetic Disease
If you or your partner carry a known genetic condition, PGD allows for the selection of embryos free from the identified mutation, significantly reducing the risk of passing it on to your child.
Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis
Increased IVF Success Rates
PGD can help identify embryos with chromosomal abnormalities, which are less likely to implant successfully. Selecting genetically healthy embryos can potentially improve your chances of a successful pregnancy.
