[quote=Anonymous]PGS means screening embryos that is suitable for pregnancy and birth, it detects chrom abnormalities that results in miscarriage or down syndromes. PGS's goal is to tell whether the embryo will survive pregnancy. PGD means diagnostics of genetic diseases that does not interfere with pregnancy and birth, but might be problem for baby and/or grownups. So PGD's goal is to tell what kind of person the embryo will become after birth. Gender selection is part of PGD because gender chrom detection has nothing to do with pregnancy and birth outlooks, but really look into what kind of person the embryo will become. [/quote]
