[quote=Anonymous]I did not use donor eggs, but was 35 when I did my egg retrieval. I chose testing because I wanted to limit (well, TRY to limit because as many of us have found out, nothing in fertility is predicable) the heartache of failed transfers and the cost and time of doing multiple transfers. Each transfer costs thousands and involves a few weeks of estrogen followed by a month of injections. My RE felt strongly that testing would increase chances of an embryo sticking and the relatively low cost made it worth it. Also my clinic saved all embryos, even those that are determined to be abnormal after testing, meaning, if technology or our understanding of chromosomal abnormalities changes in the future, they are still there for me to choose what to do with. Just my opinion, but I think it comes down to cost and your tolerance for the potential of multiple transfers or negative pregnancy tests. I know donor eggs typically come from younger women, but I imagine there is still a good number of embryos that will not duplicate DNA correctly at any age.[/quote]
