Genetic test for aneuploidy up to 8 embryos in Assoc. Prof. Dr. Serkan Oral
About the clinic
Genetic testing for aneuploidy up to 8 embryos is available at the clinic of Assoc. Prof. Dr. Serkan Oral in Istanbul, Turkey. This specialized screening helps identify chromosomal abnormalities to improve IVF success rates and lower the risk of miscarriage. The procedure is led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Serkan Oral, a specialist with over 20 years of experience in reproductive medicine and IVF.
How the Genetic Test Works
This screening is known as Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy or PGT-A. It focuses on finding embryos with the correct number of chromosomes. The process involves several steps within the IVF cycle:
- Embryo Biopsy: Performed on day 3 when the embryo reaches the 8-cell stage.
- Molecular Analysis: The clinic uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to examine the cells.
- Screening Capacity: The test covers up to 8 embryos in a single session.
- Selection Process: Only embryos found to be genetically healthy are chosen for transfer.
When to Consider PGT-A
Doctors often recommend this genetic screen for specific medical reasons. It is helpful for patients dealing with recurrent pregnancy loss or those of advanced maternal age. Couples who are known carriers of genetic diseases also use this method to help prevent passing conditions to their children. By checking for aneuploidy before pregnancy starts, the medical team can choose the best embryos for implantation.

Reproductology and IVF Services
The clinic treats both female and male infertility using evidence-based protocols. Healthy couples have a 25% monthly pregnancy chance. IVF can increase this to 60%. Specialists create individualized plans based on age and ovarian reserve. The reproductology department manages several conditions and procedures:
- IVF (in vitro fertilization) and ICSI microinjection
- Controlled cryopreservation of embryos stored in liquid nitrogen
- Fertility preservation through egg freezing
- Micro TESE for male patients with no sperm in semen analysis
- Management of PCOS and ovarian endometriomas (chocolate cysts)
Fertility preservation is a core focus for patients planning future families. The specialist evaluates ovarian reserve before recommending egg or embryo freezing.
Advanced Gynecological Surgery
Specialists perform minimally invasive surgeries to treat uterine and ovarian conditions. These procedures often address underlying causes of infertility. Surgeons use vNOTES, a technique that leaves no visible abdominal scars. The surgical team performs various interventions:
- Hysteroscopic septum resection to correct uterine abnormalities
- Laparoscopic myomectomy for the removal of uterine fibroids
- Hysteroscopic polypectomy to remove endometrial polyps
- Surgical management of hydrosalpinx to improve IVF success rates
For fibroids, the clinic recommends removal if they exceed 6 cm or cause pressure. Pre-operative hormone therapy may shrink fibroids or treat anemia. Surgeons also treat urinary incontinence with non-surgical laser therapy when suitable.
Diagnostic Technologies
The clinic uses detailed imaging and lab tests to build treatment plans. Diagnostic tools help identify uterine adhesions, fibroids, or blocked tubes. The facility has specific diagnostic equipment:
- Transvaginal and pelvic ultrasound systems
- HSG (hysterosalpingogram) for uterine X-ray imaging
- Colposcopy for early detection of cervical cellular changes
- Hysteroscopy for direct visual inspection of the uterine cavity
- Semen analysis and DNA testing for male fertility evaluation
These tools let the specialist monitor pregnancy and screen for gynecological concerns.
Services for International Patients
The clinic provides structured support for international patients through its health tourism authorization. Communication is available in English for consultations and treatment planning. The specialist guides patients through each technical step of the IVF process. The practice is located in Kızıltoprak, a central Istanbul district.
