How can balanced chromosome translocation produce a healthy baby?

How can balanced chromosome translocation produce healthy babies? For patients with balanced chromosome translocations, it takes luck to have a healthy baby by natural pregnancy. At this time, it is often

You can't afford to gamble, so you need a way to completely avoid inheritance!

Balanced Chromosome Translocation and Third Generation Test Tube

For carriers of balanced chromosomal translocation, there is still the possibility of natural childbirth. However, compared with ordinary families, the risks of biochemical pregnancy, fetal arrest, abortion and birth defects are much higher. If

If you are a carrier of translocation and have naturally given birth to a healthy child, you are undoubtedly very lucky. However, we still need to put "preventing women from experiencing multiple pregnancy failures" a top priority, and

Take a risk.


PGS genetic screening is a test for all chromosomes of an embryo

The aim is to screen the chromosome number and structure abnormalities of early embryos before the embryo is implanted in the uterus, so as to select healthy embryos for implantation, and then hope to obtain a normal pregnancy.

PGS Process

The embryo is usually cultured until the fifth day to form a blastocyst, and one cell is extracted from some cells for testing. Subsequently, these sampled cells will be sent for inspection, and chromosome extraction and analysis will be used to

Determine whether the embryo has a genetic disease and at the same time identify the sex of the embryo. Generally speaking, test results take 2 - 4 weeks. At the same time, all blastocysts will be cryopreserved, waiting for chromosomes

Implant after the results are available. For embryos without abnormalities, implantation can be carried out directly, while for embryos with abnormalities, further PGD examination is required.


PGD is a test used to diagnose genes with genetic defects in embryos

Diagnosis of chromosomal abnormalities or genetic diseases by using DNA technology on biopsied embryonic cells. By selecting normal embryos for implantation, the birth of children with genetic diseases can be avoided.

PGD Process

Biopsy samples the trophectoderm cells of the blastocyst, and DNA from the cells was extracted for chip testing. After the chip test results are presented, select normal embryos and transfer them into the uterine cavity. PGD is enough

Eliminate pregnancies in children with X-linked recessive genetic diseases, chromosomal diseases and genetic diseases during the pre-pregnancy stage, and avoid the physical and mental pain caused by termination of abnormal pregnancies due to induced abortion.
