PGT-SR in Indore: Embryo Testing for Chromosomal Rearrangements
Carry a balanced translocation or inversion? PGT-SR tests IVF embryos for unbalanced chromosomes to lower miscarriage risk. Know who needs it and the steps.
Some healthy people carry a balanced chromosomal rearrangement, such as a translocation or inversion, without knowing it. It often comes to light after recurrent miscarriages or a child with a chromosomal condition. PGT-SR tests embryos to find those with a balanced or normal chromosome set. At Asian Navkar Hospital, Indore, PGT-SR is offered after detailed genetic counselling.
Who Should Consider PGT-SR?
Couples where one partner has a confirmed balanced translocation (reciprocal or Robertsonian) or inversion on karyotype, especially after recurrent miscarriage.
Your Options
Many carriers will eventually have a healthy pregnancy naturally, though with a higher miscarriage risk. PGT-SR with IVF is one option; others include natural conception with prenatal testing, or donor gametes. Genetic counselling helps you compare these choices.
The Process
IVF with ICSI, biopsy of blastocysts, freezing, laboratory analysis and transfer of an embryo without an unbalanced rearrangement in a later frozen cycle. Prenatal confirmation in pregnancy is advised.
