Program Description:

Genetic counseling is available for couples with a family history of a genetic disorder, chromosome abnormality or birth defect, or who have a history of multiple pregnancy loss, stillbirth and/or infertility. Women with these risk factors or advanced maternal age receive evaluation and information to understand and plan appropriately for future pregnancies.

Couples who are biologically related and/or members of ethnic groups who have a high incidence of specific recessive genetic disorders can also be referred to ascertain the risk of that disorder in their future offspring and plan accordingly.
