Is Preimplantation Genetic Screening a Good Idea? | Natural Fertility Specialist, Gabriela Rosa.

Preimplantation genetic screening is a wonderful technique for some couples who are experiencing multiple failed IVF attempts.
If you have experienced multiple failed IVF attempts or you have a medical history or a genetic mutation that you need to screen for like cystic fibrosis, for example, where you have a family history, definitely it’s a good idea to have PGS. Then at least you know whether the embryos that you are going to be creating and transferring back are healthy.

Of course, if you are having difficulties getting pregnant or if you have had multiple failed IVF attempts, then looking at what else could be getting in the way is also really important. I had a patient who had 19 failed IVF attempts, and in her case, it wasn’t a matter of doing PGS. It was actually a matter of addressing all of the cumulative factors that were getting in the way for them both. Once addressed they conceived naturally and they now have a beautiful baby.
