What is Embryo Biopsy Treatment?
Embryo biopsy with PGS or PGD—it’s not as complicated as it sounds. Basically, during IVF, once the embryo starts forming, we take a tiny piece from it. Just a few cells, nothing that harms it. That sample goes to a lab. There, they check if the embryo has the right number of chromosomes—PGS does that. If we’re looking for specific inherited issues, that’s PGD. Why do this? Because it lets us pick the healthiest embryo to transfer. Especially useful for couples who’ve had IVF fail more than once. Or if there's a history of some genetic disorder in the family. Many couples who come for embryo biopsy for genetic screening in India say the same thing—“We just want to be sure this time.” And this gives them that extra bit of peace before transfer.
