Women of advanced age (late 30s onwards) should not lose hope as their chances of pregnancy is still there. Learn more from our study which will be presented by Dato’ Dr. Colin at the European Gynaecology and Obstetrics Congress in France on 17-18 February.

Dato' Dr. Colin will be the keynote speaker at the European Gynaecology and Obstetrics Congress in France on 17-18 February. During this event he will speak about the findings that "EMBRYOS ARISING FROM APRONUCLEAR (0PN) AND UNIPRONUCLEAR (1PN) HAVE SIMILAR EUPLOIDY RATES WITH THOSE FROM 2PN AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR TRANSFER" What this finding means to patients is that even embryos that are usually considered low quality or unsuitable for transfer can successfully achieve pregnancy rates similar with stardard quality embryos via PGT-A. We are truly excited to share this findings with the world and hope to be able to further increase the pregnancy potential of our patients.

SAVIOUR SIBLING PROGRAMME (SSP) A New Lifeline – A Brand New Hope

Couples with autosomal dominant or recessive disorders have a significant chance of conceiving a pregnancy that has serious genetic consequences. Beta thalassaemia is one such disorder that is endemic in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. Thalassaemia, in general, constitutes a public health problem in Malaysia. It is estimated that 350 babies are born each year in this country with blood transfusion dependent thalassaemia major. This number will cumulatively increase each year posing enormous social and economic hardships not only to patients and families but also to the government in ensuring optimal care for the existing population of thalassaemia major. Most of the thalassaemia major patients succumb to a miserable, depressing and painful existence. Their lives are centred around the hospital environments. Regular blood transfusion, transfusion transmitted illnesses, iron overload, general debility and ill-health mar their lives. Loss of education, employment, depression and despair add to their miseries. (more…)
