[quote=Anonymous]With my coverage (ACA/ MD health exchange) I had up to 3 transfers and was certain I only wanted single embryo transfers (I have a few friends who had really difficult twin pregnancies.) I did 2 retrievals with about 8 eggs each time and 7 total making it to day 5 for PGS testing. My first batch had 3 "excellent" (or should I say egg-cellent!) embryos by all the old school standards. PGS showed they were all had chromosomal abnormalities-- I forget the exact issues but they were very common, severe, and would have most definitely resulted in miscarriages if they even implanted! I was heartbroken but so grateful we did PGS testing! The 4 tested in the subsequent batch resulted in 2 normals embryos , one that is an adorable 11 month old. (Hopeful sibling in the freezer for later.) All that being said, my sister went through the same process and never had embryos that made it to testing and opted for fresh transfers...sometimes it isn't even an option. I am very grateful it was an option for us. Good luck! [/quote]
