Yes, there are prenatal tests for progeria, specifically for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), which is caused by mutations in the LMNA gene. Genetic testing can be performed on chorionic villus sampling (CVS) or amniocentesis samples to identify these mutations. However, given the rarity of the condition, prenatal testing is not commonly performed unless there is a known family history of the disorder. Consultations with genetic counselors can provide guidance on testing options.
