[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with the PP to talk to a genetic counselor and also consider the sequence of thaw-test-refreeze and how that impacts the embryo quality. [/quote] Do you just mean that it might not survive the process, or could it be damaged from all of that?[/quote] NP. Unfortunately I think the answer is both. [/quote] Right. We did PGS a few years ago (with fresh, unfrozen embryos) and I can’t recall all the details but I remember being educated about and signing paperwork explaining the potential risk of the PGS biopsy and freezing process. There was a chance it would damage the embryos perhaps irreparably so. What OP would be doing is more intense since the embryo would have to survive an initial thaw for biopsy/testing, then a re-freeze and second thaw for transfer (assuming testing results are okay).
