Abstract

Diagnosing the genetic causes of infertility and ensuring the birth of a healthy child is the foremost important role of genetics within the treatment of infertility.

Infertility could be a multifactorial disease that cannot be considered a single and particular cause for all included individuals. Genetic causes of infertility are a part of them. One vital point is that on the off chance that there are hereditary problems within the family, these genetic disarranges have a critical part in infertility and more critically within the health of children resulting from infertility treatments.
