In this interview, we’re joined by Dr. Laxmi Kondapalli to discuss assisted reproductive technologies for people who are at risk of or have a genetic mutation for FAD, and weighing the difficult decision of joining a trial or starting a family. Specifically, this interview details the ins and outs of freezing eggs or sperm to preserve fertility (also known as gamete cryopreservation).

In this interview, we’re joined by Dr. Sinem Karipcin to learn about in vitro fertilization with preimplantation genetic testing (IVF with PGT). Dr. Karipcin breaks down the science, process, and emotional journey behind this advanced reproductive technology, explaining how it works, its costs, timelines, and success rates, and whether you have to know your genetic status.
