Genetic testing is very safe for both you and your embryos. We are not making “designer
babies”, so there are no ethical issues to worry about. Some couples are concerned that the
procedure will affect their chances of pregnancy, or more importantly, the health of their
embryo. Because the procedure is done so early in the developmental process, at a time when
cells from the embryo can potentially be removed, our genetic testing does not cause any harm
to the developing embryo. Genetic testing is a vital resource for many couples, especially those
with known family histories of genetic defects.
PGD/PGS/NGS can offer genetic screening for numerous diseases and disorders classified as
either chromosomal disorders, single gene defects, or sex-linked disorders. Specific
chromosomes are tested for specific disorders, including (but not limited to):
*PLEASE ASK OUR STAFF WHICH TESTS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR YOU*
New Hope Fertility embryologists can also test for X-linked diseases, which only affect males,
(e.g. Hemophilia A, Adrenoleukodystrophy, Hunter’s disease) by identifying the sex of embryos
and transferring only female embryos. We also offer PGD for single gene defects such as
Cystic Fibrosis (CF), the common deletion (^F508), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), and
Myotonic Dystrophy (DM).
Our NYC fertility center was ranked among the top fertility clinics in New York by live birth rate
from frozen embryos according to recent SART data. Forbes lists New Hope Fertility Center as
one of the largest fertility centers in the US by cycle volume.

Se esperaría que los embriones aneuploides tengan un nivel de
mitoscore alto, debido al elevado requerimiento energético por
el estrés en que estos se encuentran y a la influencia del ROS
que es directamente proporcional al deterioro del ADNmt y el
uso mitótico, que a su vez, es el encargado de la correcta
alineación de los cromosomas, sin embargo los resultados
obtenidos fueron contradictorios al obtener embriones euploides
con un nivel elevado de mitoscore.
