[quote=Anonymous]We had over 20 failed transfers with six egg donors (under 35) and seven surrogates, plus many, many, many miscarriages and it wasn't until we transferred screened embies that we finally had a live birth. Our embies, even with healthy and young egg donors, had multiple genetic abnormalities despite normal to great results on all fertility tests. We literally wasted a decade and $100 grand in failed transfers (some in US, some overseas) before we tried PGS and finally had success.

We're certainly outliers, but that's probably only because we could afford to keep going when many others cannot. In hindsight, I would have insisted on PGS from the start. I know it isn't a guarantee of success, but it gives you a heck of a lot of helpful information.

That said, if you only produce a few eggs, you are willing to tolerate possibly multiple miscarriages, and you have money to keep transferring embies until you get to one that sticks OR you're willing to set and stick to a max budget for trasnfers (even if treatment fails), then don't bother.[/quote]
