Description
In this Ask The Egg Whisperer episode, Zoe sent in a question. Here’s what she asked, “I have a question about genetic testing. I'm 41. First round, we got 33 eggs retrieved, 19 fertilized, eight PGS tested, and only one normal. This was transferred, but wasn't successful. Same thing with a second cycle. I thought that was a problem with my chromosomes. So I had the karyotype test, which came back normal. My husband has two healthy sons from his previous marriage, so the doctor didn't think it was worth him having the test. Do we just accept that age is the problem here and my eggs aren't good quality? Should we just be happy with our one healthy embryo or should my husband do the karyotype?" Tune in to hear my answer to Zoe's question, and to other listener questions. Do you have questions about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.
