Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) coupled with IVF is a useful tool to improve success rates, reduce the risk of recurrent miscarriage and reduce the risk inherited genetic disorders such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease or muscular dystrophy. Working together with the geneticists at Reprogenetics (www.reprogenetics.com), the specialists at GRS can help you determine if this treatment is right for you.Georgia Reproductive Specialists provides the latest in assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF), ICSI, preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)blastocyst transfer, egg donation, embryo cryopreservation, ovulation induction and insemination to couples with infertility problems due to endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), male factor, fallopian tube obstruction, uterine fibroids and age related issues. GRS offers convenienently located offices in Alpharetta, Northside and Decatur. For more information visit us online at www.ivf.com, call 404-843-2229 or simply attend a free educational seminar "IVF AFTER HOURS" held monthly at our Northside office.

This is an animated video that shows the steps involved in Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD). When a fertilized egg has grown to between the 4-10 cells, 1-2 of these cells (known as blastomeres) are gently removed from the embryo using a microsurgery technique. The genetic material (DNA) from the removed cell is then analyzed for genetic abnormalities.

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is diagnosis of a genetic condition prior to achievement of a pregnancy. This form of genetic testing is performed on eggs or embryos during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle. PGD was first performed in the early 1990's as a way for couples to prevent the pregnancy of a child with genetic disease. Currently, we are able to perform PGD for many genetic conditions including single gene disorders and for chromosomal abnormalities. At the Reproductive Genetics Institute, we have been performing PGD since it became available in 1990. We pioneered the polar body removal technology and are one of the most active centers offering PGD in the world.

Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) uses embryo biopsy to evaluate the chromosomes of the embryos created through in vitro fertilization (IVF), and screens them for the most common abnormalities associated with infertility and miscarriage.

See our own Dr. Kettel interviewed by local San Diego News Channel regarding PGD research at San Diego Fertility Center. Older women and those with recurring miscarriages should consider Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis, as well as those who wish to screen for genetic conditions. The infertility specialists at San Diego Fertility Center are among the best doctors in the nation for PGD.

Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS), sometimes referred to as Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), is a technique used in conjunction with IVF in order to increase the likelihood of transferring chromosomally normal embryos into your uterus. Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis is indicated when a couple carries a gene for a specific genetic disorder. Some examples include cystic fibrosis, Huntington's disease, sickle cell disease, muscular dystrophy, polycystic kidney, Tay-Sachs, and hemophilia. Patients may know that they are at risk for certain genetic disorders, either because one of the couples has the disease or because one member of the couple is known to be a carrier for a disease. This situation is called a "single gene defect" These couples can have their chromosomes evaluated in order to determine which alleles (certain components of a gene) that they carry that can lead to the development of an embryo with the specific disease. The couple submits either a blood or saliva sample to an outside reference laboratory that collaborates with Austin IVF in order to determine the presence or absence of the abnormal gene. Once this has been confirmed, the reference lab utilizes the genetic material from the couple's blood to create a genetic probe. This probe allows the identification of the same abnormality from the DNA within a single cell that is removed from each embryo in the IVF lab.
