Genetic Testing in Fertility

Genetic testing plays a critical role in understanding infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, and hereditary disorders. These tests help identify genetic abnormalities in both partners that may affect conception, embryo development, or the health of future children.

At Matritwa IVF, we provide advanced genetic testing services to guide personalized fertility treatment plans and improve the chances of a successful and healthy pregnancy.

Types of Genetic Testing Offered at Matritwa IVF

1. Karyotype Analysis

Karyotype testing examines the chromosomes of an individual to detect structural or numerical abnormalities.

• Purpose: Identifies chromosomal disorders that may lead to infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, or congenital anomalies in children.
  
  

• Who Should Consider It:
  
  

• Couples with repeated miscarriages
  
  

• Individuals with unexplained infertility
  
  

• Partners with family history of genetic disorders
  
  

2. Y Chromosome Microdeletion Testing

Y Chromosome Microdeletion testing evaluates genetic defects on the Y chromosome that can affect male fertility.

• Purpose: Detects deletions in regions of the Y chromosome associated with sperm production.
  
  

• Who Should Consider It:
  
  

• Men with severely low sperm count (oligospermia)
  
  

• Men with azoospermia (no sperm in semen)
  
  

• Couples facing unexplained male-factor infertility
  
  

3. Fragile X Testing

Fragile X syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation on the FMR1 gene. Women carrying the mutation may experience primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), which can lead to infertility.

• Purpose: Identifies carriers of Fragile X mutation to assess fertility risks and reproductive options.
  
  

• Who Should Consider It:
  
  

• Women with family history of Fragile X syndrome
  
  

• Women with early menopause or unexplained infertility
