Genetic screening of IVF in the United States

The core technology of the third generation IVF in the United States is genetic screening, which is PGD technology. But do all test tubes in the United States need genetic screening? Are there any test tubes in the United States that are not screened?

The purpose of screening

Before embryo implantation, in order to detect whether the embryo carries pathogenic genes, whether the chromosome number and structure are abnormal, and improve the success rate and live birth rate of IVF, relevant gene testing will be carried out.

Is it necessary?
