Women's health providers’ perspectives on preimplantation genetic testing

ConclusionsIn a sample of women's health providers across multiple different OB/GYN specialties, there was an overall supportive response towards PGT use for a variety of common indications. Infertility specialists were the most supportive of PGT use, which may reflect the familiarity these providers have with this procedure. There was an overwhelmingly non-supportive response to the use of PGT for non-disease related indications. The percentage of medical professionals working in women's health without prior knowledge of PGT (22.5%) is higher than expected, identifying the need for more education regarding the availability and potential indications for this procedure.
