Genetic Screening for Family Planning
Preconception genetic screening can identify more than 400 genetic disorders with an accuracy rate of up to 99.5%.
Genetic screening before pregnancy enables the detection of more than 400 disease-carrying genes out of the 400 genes analyzed, ensuring up to 99.5% detection accuracy. This screening plays a pivotal role in family planning by preventing the transmission of genetic disorders from parents to their children.
The testing procedure is simple, involving a blood sample collection, and the results are typically available within 30 days. If a genetic abnormality is identified, individuals have the opportunity to consult with our specialized OB-GYN trained in genetic counseling and reproductive medicine specialists. This enables strategic planning for a pregnancy that is free from inherited diseases and promotes overall health.
