PGT
Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) is a specialized technique used in conjunction with IVF to assess the genetic health of embryos before implantation. PGT helps identify embryos with genetic abnormalities, chromosomal disorders, or specific genetic conditions.
How does it work?
This procedure involves the biopsy of a few cells from each embryo and the subsequent genetic analysis. Only healthy and genetically normal embryos are selected for implantation, increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy and reducing the risk of certain genetic diseases in offspring. PGT is an invaluable option for couples with a family history of genetic disorders or individuals looking to ensure the health of their future children.
Duration of the Treatment
The duration of IVF with Donation treatment for the donation receiving patients is 5 days. Patient decides when to take the treatment and her menstrual cycle date is manipulated accordingly. We only work with fresh donors, so the donor is selected once the patient decides on when to start treatment.

What are the steps for Tandem Cycle?The procedure starts with the synchronization of the menstrual cycles of the woman and the donor by means of hormonal drugs. Both partners then receive ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, and fertilization. Embryos of both groups of eggs are cultured and transferred to the uterus of the woman.
-
What is the percentage of success that a Tandem Cycle has?Rates of success are affected by many factors like woman’s age, ovarian reserve, and quality of embryos from both the woman’s eggs and those of the donor. Tandem Cycles success rates are at par with the success rates of traditional IVF or Egg Donation cycles.
-
What are the emotional aspects of the Tandem Cycle?The dynamics of Tandem Cycles may be very complex with regard to emotionally, among other things that refer to the struggle to get pregnant with own eggs as opposed to the need for donor eggs. Counseling and support services provide assistance in dealing with these emotional dimensions.
