Study Offers New Hope for Increasing Pregnancy Success Rate for Women
in High-Risk Categories
Paris Casino Resort -- Las Vegas -- June 4
WHY: Up until now most couples rolled the dice, hoping
in-vitro fertilization (IVF) would result in a baby. The
emotional, financial and physical turmoil can be
devastating. Thanks to a breakthrough fertility study,
data now exists that will increase pregnancy success
rates for women in high-risk categories such as women of
advanced maternal age (38 years +) and those who suffer
from recurrent pregnancy loss.
WHAT: At the World Congress Conference, GENESIS Network for
Reproductive Health's principal investigator will
present findings from the world's first multi-centered,
prospective, randomized study on the effects of PGD,
titled "Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) as Both
a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Tool in Assisted
Reproductive Technology."
WHERE: 5th World Congress on Controversies in Obstetrics,
Gynecology and Infertility
Paris Casino & Resort
3655 Las Vegas Boulevard
Las Vegas, NV 89109
WHEN: Friday, June 4, 2004 - 5:30 pm
WHO: Dr. Werlin is the study's principal investigator, a
world-renowned leader in the uses and study of PGD and
the co-founder of GENESIS Network for Reproductive
Health.
According to Dr. Werlin, "These findings take the
guessing game out of the process, giving couples across
America the answers they have been waiting for. Our
research now reveals how PGD can increase the chances
for pregnancy success and minimize the emotional and
financial toll too often associated with failed IVF
cycles."
PGD is gaining national and international attention for
what it offers. PGD screens and tests for abnormal
chromosomes in the beginning stages of in-vitro
fertilization, offering valuable information early on
for prospective parents about success rates and
likelihood for passing on genetic diseases.
