Pre-implantation genetic testing: A ray of hope in preventing disease transmission
India, Aug. 17 -- The emotional and psychological impact of genetic disorders on future pregnancy is profound.
Couples often face anxiety, fear, and uncertainty about the risk of passing a genetic condition to their child. Feelings of guilt, stress, and difficult decision-making about whether to conceive naturally, pursue testing or consider alternatives can affect mental health and relationships.
The uncertainty and potential outcomes may cause emotional distress and strain family dynamics.
Genetic clinics provide support by offering counselling about genetic risks and reproductive options in a clear, compassionate way.
They help couples understand complex information, cope with emotional challenges and make informed choices. Technologies like pre-implantation genetic testing (PGT) empower families by embryo screening for specific genetic conditions before pregnancy, reducing the birth of affected offspring.
Together, Jindal IVF with its advanced technologies offer hope, reduce anxiety, and enable families to plan pregnancies with greater confidence and emotional support.
