PGT-A Test in Indore: Screening Embryos for Aneuploidy
PGT-A screens IVF embryos for missing or extra chromosomes. Read who might consider it, what the evidence says, mosaic results and how embryo selection is done.
PGT-A (preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy) checks whether an IVF embryo has the expected number of chromosomes. Embryos with missing or extra chromosomes are a common reason for failed implantation and early miscarriage, especially as women get older. At Asian Navkar Hospital, Indore, we offer PGT-A after counselling, with an honest explanation that it helps select embryos but does not create better embryos.
Who Might Consider PGT-A?
PGT-A is sometimes discussed for women of older reproductive age with several blastocysts, couples with repeated implantation failure, or after miscarriages found to be due to chromosomal problems. It is not recommended for everyone.
What the Evidence Says
Large trials have not shown that PGT-A increases the overall chance of a live birth per IVF cycle for most patients, and regulators such as the HFEA do not support its routine use. It may reduce the number of transfers needed and the chance of miscarriage per transfer for some patients. Some embryos are reported as mosaic (a mix of normal and abnormal cells); a few such embryos can still lead to healthy babies, so results need expert interpretation.
The Process
Blastocysts from IVF/ICSI are biopsied, frozen and tested; a chromosomally normal (euploid) embryo is then transferred in a frozen embryo transfer cycle. See our PGT overview for details.
