PGD which is a preimplantation genetic diagnosis, is a fertility procedure step used during the In vitro fertilization procedure. This fertility treatment is used by couples who have genetic diseases and they don’t want to transmit them to their child. This test involves the removal of a few cells from the embryo which is tested to find the genetic tissue.
So, PGD is the assisted reproductive technique that helps to identify the genetic disorder in the embryo. Generally, couples with genetic diseases use the PGD to prevent the transfer of genetic diseases to their child. With the help of PGD, embryos are tested and healthy-looking embryos are transferred into the uterus of the woman to ensure a healthy normal pregnancy.

What Is The Procedure Of PGD?
Ovarian Stimulation: The woman undergoes hormonal treatment to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
Egg Retrieval: Once the eggs are mature, they are retrieved from the ovaries using a needle guided by ultrasound.
Fertilization: The retrieved eggs are fertilized with sperm in a laboratory to create embryos.
Embryo Culture: The embryos are cultured in a laboratory for 3-5 days until they reach a suitable stage for testing.
Biopsy: A few cells are removed from each embryo for genetic testing. This can be done using various techniques, such as removing cells from the trophectoderm (outer layer of cells) in a blastocyst-stage embryo
