Dr. Norbert Gleicher breaks down why he believes PGT- A is overused, over-funded, and over-aggrandized on the latest episode of Inside Reproductive Health with Griffin Jones. Is the genetics testing industry the new “big pharma”? Could PGT-A be harming pregnancy chances instead of improving them? And if so, why isn’t anyone talking about it? Tune in to see where you land on this week’s topic.
