Genetic counseling is crucial to understand how your family history, lifestyle, and other factors can affect your risk of breast cancer. An overview of genetic counseling and what it involves should be provided before it begins. A clinical genetic specialist (an expert in the relationship between genes and disease) should discuss your chances of developing cancer if you carry a faulty gene. They should present risks in a way that you can understand, and they should give you a written summary of their discussion.

Infertility genetic testing plays a crucial role in this regard. In preimplantation genetic testing, tests are performed at various stages, including during IVF, during pregnancy, and other tests to identify and prevent hereditary diseases.
