Advanced Technologies in Fertility Treatment brings hope for Thalassaemia couple
SELANGOR, August 9, 2016 — Alpha Fertility Centre (AFC) has made another significant milestone with its fertility treatment when Mr and Mrs Ong joyously welcomed the arrival of their healthy baby boy, weighing 3.58 kg. The baby boy who was successfully delivered last month, Sunday 9th July 2016 is in perfectly healthy condition despite the fact that both his parents are Alpha Thalassaemia carriers. This is the first successful case of a healthy newborn from both Alpha Thalassaemia carrier parents with Alpha Thalassaemia in Malaysia through the concurrent use of Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) and Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) with Ion Torrent Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) which were performed on a single platform using a single biopsy.
It is really a bundle of joy worth celebrating by Mr and Mrs Ong as they both are Thalassaemia carriers. While the chance of a child born from parents with this genetic condition to be normal is only 25%, the risk of their offspring to be an Alpha Thalassaemia carrier is as high as 50% and 25% risking Alpha Thalassaemia Major (also known as Bart’s hydrops fetalis).

In an ideal world, every family would have an equal number of boys and girls so as to create a balance in society. In the real world, however, whether one has sons or daughters is very much a gamble. All parents can do is to hope and pray for healthy babies.
159 IVF babies produced through Alpha Fertility Centre along with their loving parents gathered on last July 23, 2016 to jointly commemorate Alpha Fertility Centre's 5th anniversary celebration at Tropicana Golf and Country Club. This momentous occasion witness the emotional moments for all the parents to meet, greet and share this joyous session with each other as they claimed victory over their fertility treatment journey.
This record-breaking moment was also penned-down in the Malaysia Book of Records under Human Achievement Category for achieving The Most Number of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Babies Gathering in an event. The record certification was presented to Dato' Dr Colin Lee during the 5th Anniversary event. (more…)Alpha Fertility Centre celebrates anniversary with gathering of IVF children
