Abstract

Reproductive disorders are an important medical problem, affecting 10-15% of couples of reproductive age. Theirs causes include: genetic, anatomical, endocrine, infectious or psychogenic factors. The main genetic factors in human reproductive disorders are the chromosome abnormalities, implied in >50% of early abortions and 5% of stillbirth. Our goal was to give genetic counselling of couples with reproductive disorders in order to identify genetic causes for the granting of proper counselling and to provide necessary support to reduce the psychological impact of genetic diagnosis of infertility and for this one is necessary to a multidisciplinary approach.
