If you’re considering IVF, you may significantly improve pregnancy success rates with Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT). PGT is carried out on IVF embryos to detect chromosomal abnormalities and/or genetic mutations that potentially lead to miscarriage, or congenital abnormalities in the baby.

Types of PGT:
• Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy (PGT-A)
• Pre-implantation Genetic Testing for Structural Rearrangements (PGT-SR)
• Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders (PGT-M)

First Genomix offers advanced PGT testing for couples during their IVF journey to improve their reproductive outcomes, enabling them to materialize their dream of parenthood. For more information about the different types of PGT testing, call 04-3443222, or email [email protected]

Carriers of genetic diseases can appear healthy despite carrying a gene for a genetic disorder that can be passed on to their children. When both parents carry the same autosomal recessive disorder, there will be a 25% risk of having an affected child for every pregnancy.
Carrier Screening is an essential test offered to all couples considering pregnancy to verify their risk of passing on hereditary disorders to their offspring.
First Genomix offers a comprehensive test covering up to 3000 genes associated with a wide range of autosomal recessive and X-linked disorders.

Cystic Fibrosis (C.F) is an inherited autosomal recessive disorder causing severe lung and organ damage. It arises from a mutation in the CFTR gene that alters salt movement in cells, leading to thick secretions that can block tubes in affected organs. Inheriting 2 copies of the mutated CFTR gene causes the development of C.F. However, inheriting only a single copy of the mutated gene makes the person a carrier.
First Genomix offers Carrier Screening for couples with a family history of Cystic Fibrosis, before pregnancy, to assess their risk of passing on the disease to their children in the future. For more information about the test, contact First Genomix on 04-3443222, or email [email protected]
