Technological developments in genetic screening procedures, such as non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), would channel the industry's growth even further.

Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market Segment Analysis-By End Users

The Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market based on the end-users industry can be further segmented into Hospitals, Clinics, and Diagnostic Centers. The hospitals will have the most market share in 2021. This can be attributed to a growing trend in hospital settings for pre-pregnancy genetic testing. Parents and families have been putting a lot of emphasis on getting pre-pregnancy genetic testing done in government-funded hospitals that have all of the necessary capabilities for newborn screening. However, a slight increase in the number of screening programs in the healthcare setting suggests that thePre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market has a lot of room to develop. During the projection period 2022-2027, pertaining to the availability of current technology in pre-pregnancy genetic testing, as well as advantageous reimbursement regulations, the Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market for hospitals is intended to create at the quickest rate, with a CAGR of 5.8%. The high use rate of prenatal and newborn genetic testing in hospitals is driving up demand for these healthcare facilities. Increasing government investment in hospitals, as well as an increase in the number of experienced and skilled experts, is boosting industry demand. In addition, attributed to the increasing number of births in hospitals and the availability of newborn genetic testing, pre-pregnancy genetic testing is becoming more popular. In the shortest amount of time, hospitals can provide genetic testing services.

Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market Segment Analysis- By Geography

The Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market based on Geography can be further segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and the Rest of the World. In 2021, North America has traditionally dominated the Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market with a market share of 36%. This geographical market has been spurred by North America's modern healthcare infrastructure and customers' high spending power, which allows them to access pricey medical services. North America is also a major hub for medical research, including efforts to make pre-pregnancy genetic testing more widely available and affordable. This has made incorporating technological advancements into the current healthcare scenario easier, propelling the regional Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market forward. In 2021, the U.S. dominated the North American Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market, and it is expected to continue to grow at a similar rate. The lion's share of revenue is owing to a number of variables, including the high prevalence of genetic illnesses and the growing demand for minimally invasive genetic testing across the country. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 6,000 newborns are born in the U.S. each year with Down's syndrome, which affects at least one out of every 700 babies. Pregnancy in later life, i.e. after 35 years, is on the rise, raising the risk of giving birth to a child with genetic abnormalities. Over 80% of children with trisomy 21 or Down's syndrome are born to women who are over 35 years old. These negative events, together with an increase in other genetic characteristics, are expected to increase public acceptance of pre-pregnancy genetic testing in the U.S.

Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market Drivers

The market value of pre-pregnancy genetic testing is being driven by the rising pervasiveness of genetic disorders and chromosomal abnormalities.

In recent years, the prevalence of genetic illnesses and chromosomal anomalies has risen quickly over the world. Around 350 million people around the world suffer from different inherited and uncommon diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 2 to 5% of live infants had genetic diseases or chromosomal abnormalities in 2019. In affluent economies, these illnesses account for roughly 30 percent of pediatric hospital visits and 50 percent of pediatric fatalities. As the prevalence of these ailments rises, so will the market's target demographic, signaling the industry's development. Disease load is increased by genetic and congenital disorders, which result in considerable mortality in pregnancy and newborn babies. In the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Oman, and Qatar, chromosomal abnormalities are one of the top causes of newborn mortality. Several studies conducted in Saudi Arabia suggest that congenital abnormalities are to blame for the majority of prenatal deaths. Furthermore, genetic and chromosomal disorders are responsible for a variety of disabilities, including mental retardation, blindness, and deafness. Similarly, genetic illnesses and chromosomal abnormalities are found in 25-60 per 1,000 births in India and are one of the primary causes of child mortality. Inheritable cardiovascular diseases are on the rise in many countries, thanks to genetic factors that increase the occurrence of complex conditions. During the projected period, the prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities, related diseases, and genetic disorders would intensify the Pre-pregnancy Genetic Testing Market size.

The market would be boosted by increasing technological developments in pre-pregnancy genetic screening.

The improved living standards of the worldwide population has resulted in a growing awareness among expectant parents regarding genetic disorders and the possibility of early detection. The rising inclination among urban parents to delay childbearing, as well as the higher average age of mothers, have all contributed to the need for pre-pregnancy genetic testing. In the last few decades, along with growing knowledge, the number of parents who can afford complete pre-pregnancy genetic testing has also expanded significantly. As a result of these considerations, the demand for pre-pregnancy genetic testing is increasing.
