New ESHRE Good Practice Recommendations paper ready for stakeholder feedback

Expanded Carrier Screening (ECS) for reproductive purposes is a genetic testing strategy intended to identify individuals or couples who carry pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in genes associated with autosomal recessive (AR) or X-linked recessive (XLR) conditions.
The purpose of this paper is to establish good practice recommendations for the implementation of ECS in MAR centres, to promote standardised, ethical, and effective use that can support informed reproductive decision-making.
The Good Practice Recommendations paper is open for stakeholder review between 15 May and 12 June 2026.
