Описание к видео What Genetic Testing Should I do Before Pregnancy? - Carrier Screening.

Did you know there is an easy and cheap (oftentimes free with insurance) test that can tell you if you have an increased risk to have a child with a life impacting and/or life shortening genetic disease? You can even complete this testing from the comfort of your own home. The genetic test that should be offered to all people prior to conception is called carrier screening. In today's video Katie Lee Hornberger, Certified Genetic Counselor, explains what carrier screening it is and why you may want to consider carrier screening before or during pregnancy.

Katie Lee Hornberger is a certified genetic counselor with 7+ years of practice in reproductive medicine. She has worked for one of the most well-known IVF clinics in the United States and a laboratory that offers fertility-related genetic testing. She is currently employed by one of the largest sperm banks in the US. Katie started this YouTube channel to support people going through fertility treatment and miscarriages. On this channel Katie discusses topics in fertility/preconception genetic counseling and her own personal experience with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss.
