Taking Care of You:
Genetic Counselling
Supporting DR KAT Fertility Patients
Genetic conditions are more common than you might think, as up to 50% of infertility causes and 20-50% of pregnancy losses are attributable to an underlying genetic cause. Understanding your genetic risks and taking necessary steps can significantly impact your fertility journey and overall reproductive health.
That’s why we are pleased to partner with GeneLinx, a pioneering platform that provides personalised genetic counselling and testing services.
The Importance of Understanding Your Genetics as You Embark on Your Fertility Journey
Whether you are preparing for parenthood, navigating challenges like multiple miscarriages or infertility, or have a known carrier status, GeneLinx can help you make informed decisions about your reproductive health.
You may be a carrier for a genetic condition without even knowing it. Carriers usually do not have any symptoms and may not have any family history of the condition they carry, making genetic screening important for everyone.
Knowing your and your partner’s carrier status can help you make informed decisions about your family’s health and offer you more reproductive choices.
