The true causes of male and female infertility of &#8220;unclear&#8221; origin every year become more obvious and easily identifiable thanks to the latest developments in the field of reproduction and genetics. Accurate and detailed diagnosis is the key to successful treatment, whatever the diagnosis.<br \/>\nGenetic centre iVF Riga, thanks to the innovative achievements in the field of reproduction and genetics, has the opportunity to provide an in-depth examination for couples with infertility, miscarriage, and unsuccessful IVF attempts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>At Genetic centre iVF Riga, patients consult geneticists Dr. Liene Kornejeva and Dr. Ieva Grinfelde.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During the consultation, a geneticist collects anamnesis and can offer an expert opinion regarding the risk of passing down genetic disorders to the next generations, determine the possible causes of infertility and offer possible solutions; prescribes karyotyping (genetic blood tests) to future parents. According to the results, together with the patient geneticist discusses and selects an appropriate treatment strategy to reduce the risks or impact of genetic infertility causes for the purpose of conception and having a healthy child. Doctor issues an opinion on the need for preimplantation testing (PGT) indicating the test method, which is most relevant in the case of a particular pair.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; el_class=&#8221;section&#8221;][vc_column rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; el_class=&#8221;container-fluid px-0&#8243;][vc_row_inner rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; el_class=&#8221;row no-gutters&#8221; el_id=&#8221;img-cst&#8221;][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;col-lg-6 bg-grey&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; rsinner=&#8221;max-670 mx-lg-auto px-15&#8243;][vc_column_text rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221;]\n<h4 class=\"likeh2\">The number of embryos examined for the presence of genetic abnormalities: 11 020<\/h4>\n<p><b>The number of IVF cycles after PGT-M<\/b> (Preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic\/single gene diseases):\u00a0<b>57*<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>*<\/b>for the families after genetic examination, in which the hereditary genetic disorder is molecularly confirmed.<\/p>\n<div><b>Currently iVF Riga Clinic has embryos tested for the following genetic abnormalities:<\/b><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Huntington\u2019s chorea<\/li>\n<li>Thoracic Aortic Dissections<\/li>\n<li>Ichthyosis \u2013 mutations in the ALOX12B gene<\/li>\n<li>Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis<\/li>\n<li>GM1-Gangliosidosis<\/li>\n<li>Myotubular myopathy<\/li>\n<li>Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy<\/li>\n<li>Hemophilia B<\/li>\n<li>Osteogenesis imperfecta<\/li>\n<li>Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease<\/li>\n<li>Bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria<\/li>\n<li>Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease<\/li>\n<li>Cystic fibrosis<\/li>\n<li>PRKAG2 cardiomyopathy<\/li>\n<li>Microphthalmia<\/li>\n<li>Prolidase deficiency<\/li>\n<li>Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>In 2014, the first Genetic Center iVF Riga was opened in Baltic Countries and Northern Europe, where you can get in-depth genetic examinations.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;col-lg-6 banner-left bg-full&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4243&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_single_image][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; el_class=&#8221;container&#8221;][vc_column rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221;][vc_row_inner rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; el_class=&#8221;row&#8221;][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;col-lg-6 text-center text-lg-left pr-md-4&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2036&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; rs_image_class=&#8221;w-100&#8243;][\/vc_single_image][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;col-lg-6 mt-3 mt-lg-0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221; rsinner=&#8221;ch_pr_45&#8243;][vc_column_text rsclass=&#8221;clean&#8221;] We are the only Genetic centre in Latvia who performs Preimplantation genetic testing on site, in our own laboratory.
