Premarital Screening and counseling

Premarital screening aims to maintain public health by ensuring that infectious and genetic diseases are detected and dealt with during the premarital stage. The screening includes setting appointments with experts and doctors who are keen to provide premarital advice and point out any health challenges immediately. Genetic testing within premarital screening is an essential part of the premarital screening program for all citizens intending to marry in the country. It is a procedure that allows those intending to marry to undergo genetic tests to determine whether they carry common genetic mutations that may be passed on to their children in the future when it causes preventable genetic diseases.
