Patient's question:
During pregnancy, a thorough check-up revealed a problem with chromosomes. I asked many friends, and they said that even if this self-conception is successful, it is prone to miscarriage. Moreover, if the baby is conceived, it is better not to keep it and directly undergo preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) using a culture dish. Could you please help me get a professional opinion from a doctor?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description and the chromosome test report you provided, it is inferred that abnormal chromosomes in both males and females cannot be treated. For male chromosome abnormalities, treatment can be achieved through third-generation IVF (in vitro fertilization). Third-generation IVF involves extracting the genetic material of the embryo before implantation to predict and diagnose any abnormalities, selecting healthy embryos for implantation to prevent intergenerational inheritance and transmission.
