aving children is perhaps the
biggest decision you'll ever make.
It certainly puts the trivial stuff you
overthink into sharp perspective.
And that's why you should put your trust
in The Centre for Reproductive & Genetic
Health (CRGH), which has earned a reputation
as one of the most highly regarded IVF clinics
in the world. When it comes to couples in
need of help, guidance and conceptionrelated information, CRGH's cutting
edge, innovative approach - which harnesses
the latest in technology - might be the answer.
If you're about to embark on the journey
of creating life, even if you don't need fertility
treatment, CRGH will help give you the best
possible start. CarrierMatch is a pioneering,
UK-first service which screens 600 different
genes for diseases. If both parents have the
mutations on the same gene, this process
makes them aware and could, crucially,
potentially prevent their child developing
a serious genetic condition.
It's easy to think, 'It won't apply to me,'
but more than 80 per cent of the human
population have at least one of these gene
mutations. However, these are mostly recessive
genes, which mean the offspring is only
affected if both parents share and pass on
the mutation - around one in 20 couples.
If CRGH identify a matching mutation,
several solutions are offered. One possible
path entails helping the couple produce several
viable embryos, testing for the 'problem' gene,
then only transferring 'healthy' embryos. The
CarrierMatch service includes a consultation
with a special genetic counsellor to discuss test
results and your treatment options.
CarrierMatch is just one innovative way
CRGH helps couples conceive a healthy baby.
According to the latest data published by The
Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority
(HFEA), they boast the highest IVF/ICSI live
birth rate in London per embryo transferred
(fresh embryos patients' eggs, all ages).
