Top 3 Questions to Ask Your Fertility Clinic About Genetic Testing Before Starting IVF

Considering IVF and genetic testing of embryos (PGT-A, PGT-M)? It’s essential to ensure your fertility clinic aligns with your goals, especially regarding embryo transfer policies and genetic testing. After talking with many couples on this journey, I’ve noticed recurring questions that can impact your IVF experience and outcomes.

This post highlights three essential questions to ask your clinic:

  1. Transfer Policy on Non-Euploid Embryos: Does your clinic consider transferring embryos with mosaic or segmental aneuploidy?

  2. Mosaicism Reporting by Testing Labs: Are mosaic results reported, or does your clinic choose to categorize embryos strictly as normal or abnormal?

  3. Access to Genetic Counseling: Does your clinic work directly with a genetic counselor to guide you through testing and transfer decisions?

These questions only scratch the surface, but they’re key to setting the right expectations. If you’re looking for more support or have questions about your journey, feel free to reach out—we’re here to help.
