What is the PGD treatment?

Here’s what the typical PGD treatment looks like in Delhi.

1. Stimulation of the ovaries

The ovaries have to be artificially stimulated using hormones to produce several eggs at one time in order to create embryos for genetic testing.

2. Collection of eggs from the ovaries

The eggs are removed through a process called egg retrieval. The eggs are inspected and the IVF is carried out so that fertilization occurs.

3. Embryo biopsy

The eggs that were successfully fertilized are grown in the laboratory for 2-3 days until the cells have divided and the embryo consists of around 8 cells. An embryologist removes one or two of the cells (blastomeres) from the embryo.

4. Embryo Testing

The cells are tested to see if the embryo from which they were removed contains the gene that causes the genetic condition in the family. 

5. Embryo Transfer

The embryo unaffected by the condition is transferred to the womb to allow it to develop. Remaining healthy embryos can be frozen for future use.


Any suitable remaining unaffected embryos can be frozen for later use. Our genetic team works to support patients who are at risk of a variety of inherited conditions.
