What is Infertility?
Infertility is defined as the inability to achieve and maintain pregnancy and is considered a significant reproductive system disorder. Infertility affects one out of every six couples globally.
Male infertility accounts for approximately 35% of couples having conception delay, whereas female infertility accounts for approximately 45% of instances. The remaining cases are the result of a mix of male and female influences. Infertility is caused by genetic abnormalities in 10-15% of men and women. Infertility genetic testing can detect these mutations, providing your healthcare physician with crucial information that can assist them in determining the best treatment approach for you.
Why Rodinia?
Rodinia is a genetic test that detects genetic variations (mutations) that are linked to infertility. By determining the genetic cause of infertility, your healthcare professional will be able to make educated and precise recommendations about the best clinical therapy for you, increasing your chances of conception.
