Genetic Carrier Screening Tests
Understand Your Reproductive Future with Genetic Carrier Screening
Nandini IVF offers comprehensive Genetic Carrier Screening Tests to empower you with crucial information about your reproductive health. Through a simple saliva test, you can understand your chances of passing on genetic conditions to your children, allowing you to make informed decisions about your family planning.
What is Genetic Carrier Screening?
Genetic Carrier Screening helps you determine your risk of being a carrier for single-gene conditions, such as cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy, and Fragile X syndrome, among others. Being a carrier means you don’t have the condition yourself, but you carry a gene that, if inherited by your child from both parents, could lead to them developing the condition.
Who Can Benefit?
This test is available to everyone, regardless of whether you are an IVF patient. It’s an excellent option for anyone planning to have a baby in the future, providing valuable insights to help you make informed choices about your reproductive journey.
Why Consider Genetic Carrier Screening?
- Informed Decisions: Gain a comprehensive understanding of you and your partner’s combined genetic information to make proactive choices about conceiving.
- Ease of Testing: The simple saliva test requires no needles or hospital visits, making it a convenient option.
- Expert Support: Our dedicated team of genetic counsellors and fertility specialists are available to provide personalized advice and support, especially in the event of a high-risk result.
Optimal Timing for Screening
The ideal time to undergo genetic carrier screening is before pregnancy. This provides ample time to understand the results and consider all available reproductive options. While screening can also be done in early pregnancy, it may limit the choices available for the current pregnancy and reduce the time for decision-making. Therefore, pre-conception screening is strongly recommended.
