One of the most advanced techniques used in the fertility centers of Iran is PGD which can test genetic abnormalities before embryo transfer to the uterus and at the same time determine the sex of each embryo. PGD in Iran is very popular among foreign patients with affordable prices at the highest quality.
Iranian Surgery has the longest history in providing fertility treatment services to international clients with many successful and satisfied cases. From the initial free consultation online, to fixing your treatment plan with expert doctors, preparing your travel itinerary, booking hotel, airport transfer, providing a medical interpreter and so many other services, the Iranian Surgery team will be there to support you throughout all the phases of your journey.
The price for the PGD test itself depends on the number of embryos. The cost of PGD in Tehran starts from 1500$, in Shiraz it starts from 1000$, and in Mashhad it starts from 1200$. We recommend you choose a suitable PGD package for gender selection since there are other expenses such as necessary tests and consultation with the related specialists for the intended parents before they go through with the PGD test on the embryos.
PGD is one gender selection method that has a high success rate of over 99%. Due to using advanced equipment and expert specialists, Iran has been able to maintain this good record.
You need to have the identification documents of the intended parents, your Karyotype test report, other necessary medical reports, and recommendation letters from your infertility treatment specialist and geneticist.
Yes PGD and gender selection is completely legal in Iran for international and local clients. Many of the advanced infertility treatment centers in Iran are offering PGD services with up-to-date equipment and high efficiency.
The PGD procedure is done at the embryology laboratory of the same infertility center in which you did IVF. The best and most up-to-date centers for doing IVF in Iran are located in Shiraz and Tehran. According to your situation, and the services these centers offer, our client consultation team can advise you about the options that are most suitable for you.

Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is a reproductive technology used along with an IVF treatment cycle to reduce the risk of passing on inherited conditions to your babies. PGD identifies genetic issues which might cause an unsuccessful pregnancy and potential birth defects, thus ensuring a successful live birth by selecting the best embryo for implantation.
PGD in Iran can also be used for selecting the gender of your baby by determining which sex chromosomes are in an embryo and then implanting it to the uterus.
There are now new names for PGD which might be a bit confusing:
Since the embryos need to be in a lab, if you want to go through any of these procedures, you need to have IVF even if you and your partner have no fertility problems. Your doctor will advise on which procedure is suitable for you.
After in vitro fertilization (IVF), in the early embryo development period, a few cells are carefully removed from the embryo for biopsy.The embryos are stored/frozen while genetic material inside the removed cells is tested for abnormalities. Embryo biopsy and embryo freezing is safe and does not endanger the growth or the health of the embryo afterwards. You can check whether each embryo is healthy and simultaneously do PGD – gender selection. After suitable embryos are chosen, they can be implanted in the uterus and a pregnancy test follows about 2 weeks later.
A single gene disorder is caused by variations (or mutations) in the DNA sequence of a specific gene. When one or both parents are carriers of a genetic disorder, they have a chance of passing it to their children—even if they themselves are healthy. Some of the more common examples include: cystic fibrosis, hemochromatosis, thalassemia, Huntington’s disease, Tay-Sachs, and sickle cell anemia.
When a sperm fertilizes an egg, the union leads to a baby with 46 chromosomes. Chromosomal abnormalities happen when there’s an error in cell division, for example if there’s an extra chromosome or a chromosome is missing. These problems can cause pregnancy loss or health problems in a child.
When chromosomes break and reunion with a different configuration, if unbalanced, result in structural chromosome rearrangements. This is known to cause chromosomal and genomic disorders.
