If you had embryo genetic testing performed (preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy or PGT-A) and got a mosaic result, it is normal to have a lot of questions about whether you might want to transfer the embryo. At DNAide, all of our genetic counsellors are experts in mosaic PGT-A results, and we have many patients who have had healthy babies from mosaic embryo transfers. We’re here to help you decide if using a mosaic embryo is right for you.

Choosing an egg donor, sperm donor, or embryo donor is an important decision. We can meet with you to review the genetic profiles of your top donor candidates to help you decide who feels right.

Some people have genetic causes of IVF failure. If you have done IVF multiple times and saw the following in all cycles, genetic testing could explain why: most/all eggs are immature (oocyte maturation arrest), embryos don’t reach the blastocyst stage (early embryonic arrest), eggs don’t fertilize (fertilization failure), and more. We can work with your doctor to see if genetic testing is right for you.

PGT-A testing is complex, and not all aneuploid or “abnormal” embryos are equal. If you want the truth about what your abnormal PGT-A results mean, we will walk you through everything in detail.

If you are planning a pregnancy, it is normal to worry about your future baby’s health. If you or your family members have a health condition and you are wondering about the chance of passing it on, we can meet with you to discuss this. Genetic Counsellors are trained to know exactly what questions to ask so we can help you understand just what your family history means for your baby’s future.

Sometimes when you are planning a pregnancy you might want to be proactive. Carrier screening is a genetic test that you can do to help understand whether you and your reproductive partner are at a high risk of having a child with a genetic condition. We can review your results with you, or help you get this testing done.

If you have had a genetic test done as part of your fertility or pregnancy journey, meeting with a genetic counselor can help you understand what the results mean. We have a lot more time to meet with you than a doctor so most people leave with all their questions answered.

If your doctor recommended a genetic test, like preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), you might want more information about it before proceeding. At DNAide, we’re independent. This means we put your needs first. We’ll talk through the pros and cons of testing, get to know you, so you can decide whether testing is right for you or not.
