What are the Implications for Family Planning?

Couples who are known carriers of autosomal recessive mutations often seek genetic counseling to understand their risks and options. Options for family planning may include:
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) with Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD): Allows for the selection of embryos without the genetic disorder.
Prenatal Testing: Helps parents make informed decisions during pregnancy.
Adoption: An alternative option for couples concerned about passing on genetic disorders.
