Genetic Counselling for Chromosomal Disorders
Genetic counseling for chromosomal disorders involves assessing the risk of genetic conditions in unborn children or future pregnancies. This process typically includes analyzing family health history, offering genetic testing options, and interpreting results. It’s particularly relevant for couples with a family history of chromosomal issues, advanced maternal age, or other risk factors. Counselors provide information about potential outcomes, help interpret any findings, and support families in making informed reproductive choices. The goal is to empower individuals with knowledge about their genetic risks and options for a healthy pregnancy.
