What is Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)?

PGT is a process used during IVF to genetically test your embryos. PGT can be used to test for chromosomal changes, either too much or too little DNA (PGT-a), structural rearrangements (PGT-sr), the physical location of parts of DNA, or single-gene defects (PGT-m), the spelling sequence of DNA. All of this testing is performed before an embryo is selected for implantation in the uterus. This helps select the healthiest embryos, improve pregnancy success, and reduce the risk of passing on serious genetic conditions.

Atlantic Fertility is proud to work with Juno Genetics, a state-of-the-art lab offering some of the most advanced and accurate preimplantation genetic testing in the world.

Moments like these are why we do what we do ❤️

"We had a fantastic experience with Atlantic Fertility. Everyone working there made me feel so important. I never walked out of an appointment with questions or wondering. When you are trying to get pregnant for a long time and decide to go down the IVF road, it can feel like the process is very long at the beginning, but it flies by and is 150% worth it! It was such an amazing experience, and we would recommend it to anyone wondering what they should do! I had a fantastic pregnancy and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl!"
