[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have the money to spend then go for it.  I was your age when we did IVF, didn't do PGS per RE's recommendation, and were successful.  Just like prenatal testing, PGS is not a silver bullet so it's no guarantee but it does provide additional peace of mind.  However at your younger age you are at lower risk for abnormalities.  Another thing to consider is that if your embryos survive to day 5 that is already going to weed out many with abnormalities.  I felt pretty good about transferring a 5 day blastocyst with good grading.  Then you're constantly monitored in early pregnancy which also helps ease anxiety.[/quote]

Do the PGS.  I had two genetically abnormal DE blasts from donors in their 20s (two different ones) that led to very painful miscarriages because my guarantee programs did not allow PGS screening.  Failed cycles in-between. . . if you have a lot of blasts, it lets you skip tot he normal ones and avoid failed cycles.  I still hate the clinics stopping me from doing testing because it screwed up the affordable financial arrangements I had with them.  They were happy to let me miscarry and have failed transfers instead.[/quote]
