Description
This course offers a comprehensive exploration of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), screening tests for monogenic diseases, and the intricate relationship between genetics and reproduction. These subjects hold significant relevance in contemporary reproductive medicine as they provide the opportunity to detect and prevent genetic disorders prior to embryo implantation.
PGT and single gene disease screening tests empower couples to make informed decisions regarding their reproductive future and effectively prevent the transmission of severe genetic diseases. Moreover, a thorough understanding of the interplay between genetics and reproduction is crucial in delivering appropriate genetic counseling and comprehensive care to patients navigating reproductive challenges.
