I would decide to take the test to find out if you will develop Huntington's chorea, because it is a disease that has a lethal progeny, with early treatment it is possible to live longer.

<h3>What is this Huntington's disease?</h3>

Huntington's disease is a genetic disease that affects the nervous system, causing involuntary movements, changes in behavior and motor coordination. Symptoms begin to appear in adulthood, between 35 and 45 years of age, and may worsen over time.

With this information, we can conclude that Huntington's Disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant disease, which confers a 50% risk of transmission to offspring. Although there is no cure, it is possible to prevent the transmission of this disease to future generations through PGT-M.
