Pre Pregnancy Counselling
Pre-pregnancy counselling (PPC) helps couples understand and prepare for a healthy pregnancy by assessing medical, lifestyle, and reproductive factors.
PPC for Consanguineous Couple
A consanguineous couple refers to partners who are biologically related by blood, such as cousins. Marriages between close relatives can increase the risk of passing on inherited genetic disorders to their children due to shared genes.
PPC for Genetic Disorders
Pre-pregnancy counselling for genetic disorders helps couples with a family history of inherited conditions understand their risks and explore testing or preventive options before conception.
Carrier Screening
Carrier screening identifies if either partner carries genes for certain genetic conditions, allowing informed decisions and early interventions.
