Genetic Counselling

Genetic counselling is an important part of modern fertility care, helping individuals and couples understand how genetic factors may affect their ability to conceive and have a healthy child.

It involves reviewing personal and family medical history, identifying potential inherited conditions, and providing guidance on the risks and available options. Through this process, patients are better informed and able to make confident decisions about their fertility journey.

As fertility treatments become more advanced, genetic counselling plays a key role in improving outcomes and reducing the risk of passing on genetic conditions.

When Should You Consider Genetic Counselling

Genetic counselling may be recommended at different stages of your fertility journey, especially when there are known or suspected genetic concerns.

You may consider genetic counselling if:

  • There is a family history of inherited medical conditions
  • You or your partner are known carriers of a genetic disorder
  • You have experienced repeated pregnancy loss
  • Previous pregnancies were affected by genetic abnormalities
  • You are planning IVF and considering genetic testing of embryos
  • You want a clearer understanding of potential genetic risks before conception

It is also useful for individuals who simply want more clarity and reassurance before starting fertility treatment or planning a pregnancy.
