Carrier screening helps identify couples who carry certain genetic mutations that could cause serious genetic disorders in their offspring. It analyzes a few genes at a time to look for variants associated with disorders like cystic fibrosis, fragile X syndrome, spinal muscular atrophy, and Tay-Sachs disease. Identifying carriers through screening assists in reproductive decision-making.
