About this listen
If you could reduce medical risks before pregnancy, would you? A doctor + geneticist explain the major test types, what each actually tells you, and their limits—so you know when to use them (and when not to). You’ll learn: what screening vs diagnostic tests do, how to think about carrier testing, NIPT, and embryo testing (PGT‑A/M), common limitations (false positives/negatives, VUS), and how to talk with your clinic.
