[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks! It's so stressful. I thought I could celebrate after hearing they were euploid, but the embryology lab got back to me and said in their experience a 5BC embryo has a 25-35% chance of live birth. I want to be positive, but I'm a numbers person and this means[b] I would need 8 euploid 5BC embryos to have a 100% chance of a live birth.[/b] I know nothing is guaranteed and someone has to win, why not me? I just wish I could boost this embryo quality.[/quote]

That is not how statistics work. If you have two coins you don't have a 100% chance one comes up as heads.

If you want to use your own embryo, it sounds like this is the best one you've got. Hope it works out well for you![/quote]Exactly! We're saying the same thing. 100% is not 25x4. It's so confusing, but if each embryo has a 25% chance of working and the probability of one event occurring does not affect the probability of the next event occurring then the probility of getting pregnant after 8 embryos of 5BC grade is is 0.25^8. The probility of not getting pregnant after 8 tries is 1-.25^8. [/quote]Sorry! .75 where I put .25[/quote]
