PGT GuidesPGT can screen embryos for certain chromosome problems, but it cannot explain or treat most causes of recurrent pregnancy loss. Here is what the test covers, where its evidence stops, and how to separate embryo factors from other factors in your own case.
Read article →PGT GuidesA euploid PGT-A result means the sampled cells showed the expected chromosome number. It does not confirm the whole embryo is normal, and it cannot control the many other steps between a transfer and an implanting pregnancy.

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.

PGT GuidesIf a chromosome rearrangement has already been found, the PGT conversation starts with your actual report, not a general test menu. Here is what to gather and what to ask before you commit to a plan.
Read article →PGT GuidesCombining PGT-M and PGT-A means two different questions are asked of the same embryo biopsy. Here is how to prepare for a genetic counselling conversation about test design, limitations and who explains the results.

PGT GuidesPGT-A looks at chromosome number across an embryo's genome, while PGT-M follows a known family condition. Here is why one test cannot substitute for the other, and what to clarify before testing.
Read article →PGT GuidesPGT-M is embryo testing for a known single-gene condition. Here is what it involves, why families with a known condition or family history seek genetic counselling, and why timing matters before IVF begins.
Read article →PGT GuidesPGT-A screens an embryo biopsy for extra or missing chromosome copies. It is a screening test with real limits, and a normal result is not a guarantee of pregnancy or a healthy child.

PGT GuidesA pregnancy rate and a live-birth rate can describe the same clinic and the same year yet differ by a wide margin. The difference is rarely about skill; it is about what is counted, in whom, and over what period.
Read article →PGT GuidesPGT-SR is preimplantation genetic testing for a known structural chromosome rearrangement. Here is what it looks at, what it cannot see, and why the test has to be designed around your own karyotype.
Read article →PGT GuidesPGT-M is designed around a known inherited variant in your family, so the laboratory needs your genetic report and often family samples before an IVF cycle can be planned. Here is why that preparation takes time and how to organise it from abroad.
Read article →PGT GuidesMorphology describes what an embryologist can see; PGT describes chromosome findings from a small sample of cells. Here is why the two can point in different directions, and how to discuss both reports with your clinician.
