PGT GuidesPGT-A and PGT-SR both examine embryos, but they answer different questions. Here is how aneuploidy screening differs from testing for a known structural rearrangement, and what to confirm before you travel.

Read article →PGT GuidesPGT is a relay between two laboratories: embryology grows and samples the embryo, genetics reads the sample. Knowing where each side's work ends helps you read reports and compare quotations.

PGT GuidesSperm source changes how a cycle is scheduled, billed and coordinated — but not how embryos are cultured or tested. Here is what to plan around before you compare quotations.
Read article →PGT GuidesA practical guide to the questions worth asking about sperm DNA fragmentation testing when the father is older, including whether age alone justifies the test, what the result can and cannot tell you, and how to plan around it.
Read article →PGT GuidesA semen analysis reports count, movement and shape separately, but clinicians read them as one profile. Here is how the three parameters interact, what the reference limits do and do not mean, and what to clarify before a treatment plan is set.
