Pre-implantation Genetic Screening PGS: Your Path to a Healthy Pregnancy
We understand the emotional journey of IVF treatment and the hope you carry for starting your family. Pre-implantation Genetic Screening (PGS) offers you the confidence and reassurance that comes with knowing your embryos are chromosomally healthy before transfer. At Oracle Genomics, we’re committed to supporting South African couples with accurate, reliable genetic testing that puts your family’s future first.
Understanding Pre-implantation Genetic Screening
PGS is a sophisticated genetic test that screens embryos created through IVF for chromosomal abnormalities. Using advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Microarray technology, we analyse a small sample of cells from each embryo to ensure they have the correct number of chromosomes. This screening helps identify the healthiest embryos for transfer, significantly improving your chances of a successful pregnancy.
Our testing process is minimally invasive and performed on blastocyst-stage embryos, ensuring the utmost care and precision while preserving embryo viability.
Who Should Consider PGS Testing?
This screening is particularly beneficial for:
- Women aged 35 and older undergoing IVF treatment
- Couples with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss
- Those who have experienced previous IVF failures
- Couples concerned about chromosomal disorders
- Patients wanting to maximise their chances of a single, healthy embryo transfer
- Individuals with known chromosomal rearrangements
If you’re investing emotionally and financially in IVF treatment, PGS provides the additional assurance that you’re transferring the most viable embryos.
Why PGS Matters for Your Family’s Health
Choosing PGS screening offers multiple significant benefits:
- Increased Pregnancy Rates: Transferring chromosomally normal embryos can improve implantation success by up to 70%
- Reduced Miscarriage Risk: Chromosomal abnormalities account for 50-60% of early miscarriages – PGS helps prevent this heartbreak
- Single Embryo Transfer Confidence: Reduce multiple pregnancy risks by confidently selecting the healthiest single embryo
- Time and Cost Efficiency: Avoid multiple failed IVF cycles by identifying viable embryos from the start
- Peace of Mind: Know you’re giving your future child the best possible start
Understanding Your PGS Results
Your results will clearly indicate whether each embryo tested is:
- Euploid: Chromosomally normal – ideal for transfer
- Aneuploid: Contains chromosomal abnormalities – not recommended for transfer
- Mosaic: Contains both normal and abnormal cells – requires clinical consultation
Our genetic counsellors and fertility specialists will help you understand your results and make informed decisions about which embryos to transfer. With results available in just 1-2 days, you can proceed with your treatment plan without unnecessary delays.
