At the beginning of the year, he was diagnosed with X-linked adrenal leukodystrophy, and genetic testing revealed an abnormal site in the ABCD1 gene.Doctor's answer:
The third-generation IVF, also known as Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), refers to the method of analyzing the genetic material of embryos before their transfer in IVF-ET to diagnose any abnormalities, screen for healthy embryos for transfer, and prevent the transmission of genetic diseases.
