I had this done before I did my IVF process, it was mandatory that they do it. I dont remember what they test for, but some of it is like spina bifida, cystic fibrosis.
You may want to post this on the infertility site, redstar is a great help

Re: what do they test for in genetic counseling?
we went to genetic counseling when i was PG with kaylee. They found a cyst on her brain and they didn't know what it was so they tried to prepare us for what it could be. Then they did a ton of blood test to rule all of them out one by one. THye tested us for eveything. Then they asked us our family history from my great great grandfather all the way to us. Any questions feel free to FM me.
