Q. Can a family member who has a partial HLA match be an acceptable donor for a Bone Marrow Transplant, or is it necessary to find a fully matched unrelated donor?

A family member who has a partial HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) match may be an acceptable donor for a Bone Marrow Transplant, particularly if a fully matched unrelated donor is not available. While a fully matched donor is preferred to reduce problems and graft failure, a partial match from a family member can still be considered if the HLA match is close enough. The decision on the donor will be based on the patients individual condition and the medical team's recommendations.

Q. Could you please describe the notion of Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing (PGT) in IVF and when it is recommended?

Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing (PGT) is a procedure performed during IVF to examine embryos before implantation for certain genetic illnesses or chromosomal abnormalities. Couples with a history of genetic problems, advanced maternal age, recurrent miscarriages, or repeated failed IVF efforts may benefit from PGT. PGT can raise the odds of a successful pregnancy and lower the danger of passing on inherited genetic disorders to the offspring by selecting Embryos with no Genetic abnormalities. PGT is not, however, a guarantee of a healthy pregnancy, and its application is adapted to each individual's circumstances and medical history.
