What is PGT-M test?

PGT-M (formerly PGD) is an early genetic diagnosis test for embryos produced during IVF, prior to their transfer to the uterus.

By analysing DNA from each embryo, normal embryos can be preferentially selected to be transferred and begin the journey towards conceiving a healthy child.

What is the procedure?

Why should use PGT-M test?

  • PGT-M is indicated for couples with personal or familial high-risk for single gene conditions including Cystic Fibrosis, Fragile-X syndrome, Muscular dystrophy,
  • Huntington’s disease, and others.

Who should use PGT-M test?

  • Patients who are undergoing an assisted reproduction treatment and have a personal or familial high-risk for single gene conditions. This risk may be identified due to:
  • A family history of these conditions
  • A positive carrier screening result
  • A previous affected child

Test limitations

  • Limitations of PGT-M can arise from the IVF treatment itself. For example, poor ovarian stimulation can reduce the likelihood of identifying a healthy embryo, since PGT-M success is linked to the number of high-quality eggs and embryos produced in the cycle.
  • PGT-M provides no guarantee of a completely healthy baby. If a couple is at high risk of transmitting a particular disease to their offspring, PGT-M significantly minimises this risk. However, there remains a small risk of misdiagnosis due to technical limitations, such as contamination, recombination and ADO. Couples should always be offered the possibility of prenatal diagnosis to confirm results. It is important to know that PGT-M will test for the specific mutation requested, but no other genes or mutations are analyzed, even if they are located within the same gene.
  • In some countries there can be legal limitations. The laws regulating PGT-M vary by country. In some countries, its use is prohibited or tightly regulated and might require, for some indications, a case-by-case authorization by a National Committee.
