How can IVF and Genetic testing help prevent Sickle Cell disease? 

July and September are Sickle Cell Awareness Months in the U.K. and U.S.A. Sickle cell disease is a relatively common genetic disorder that IVF & Genetic testing (PGT‑M) can help prevent – around one in 10 African-Americans is a carrier for this trait. Other groups can carry sickle cell trait as well, including Hispanics, Caribbean, South Americans, Central Americans, and those from certain parts of Europe, including Italy and Greece. In addition to working with patients who carry this trait, at PFC we also work with patients who have sickle cell disease. Advancements in the field of genetic testing have made it possible for carriers to avoid passing on the condition to their children.
