PGD Cancun

Last Updated on December 18, 2019

PGD Cancun for gender selection is performed by leading fertility clinics in Cancun for the purpose of achieving a more balanced representation of both genders in a family.

Gender can be selected by utilizing technology called Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) Cancun, a technology that involves testing the chromosomal make-up of an embryo.

PGD Cancun is completed in conjunction with IVF Cancun. Once the test results are known, only the embryo(s) of the desired gender are returned to the patient’s uterus, thereby ensuring a nearly 100% accuracy rate for gender if pregnancy is achieved.

What is PGD Cancun (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis)?

PGD in Cancun involves genetic testing of an embryo for a specific gene mutation[s] when one or both biological parents is already aware of the existence of a genetic abnormality.

PGD is recommended for couples that have a genetic predisposition and/or have any probability of passing down a known genetic abnormality. Any couple with a family history of aneuploidy (abnormal number of chromosomes) which results in miscarriage, birth defects, or Down Syndrome can be screened.

In addition, families that have a history of single-gene defects — such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, and muscular dystrophy — can consider PGD testing.

Is PGD Cancun Safe?

IVF Doctors in Cancun have successfully performed both PGS and PGD for many of patients, and recommend it as a way to ensure that healthy embryos are used during fertility treatment.

PGD and PGS do not affect the embryo’s viability, making both procedures a safe and recommended part of the IVF Cancun process.
