      Can genetic testing be done during IVF to check embryos before implantation?

    • #556

      Yes. This is called preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), and it screens embryos created through IVF for specific genetic conditions or chromosomal abnormalities before they are transferred, often used by couples with a known hereditary condition in the family.
