Genetic Disorders: Screening to Prevent Recessive Genes from Passing to Children (Test Heritage Carrier Screening)
Genetic characteristics inherited from parents to children occur naturally. However, if the father or mother has abnormal DNA, they may pass on abnormal genes to their child, which can lead to genetic diseases. These diseases cannot be completely cured, but prevention is possible, such as through in vitro fertilization or appropriate care, which can alleviate symptoms. Genetic disorder screening (Test Heritage Carrier Screening) is therefore very important as it helps reduce the risk and prevent the transmission of genetic diseases from parents to children.
