[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi- I just found out that it has been highly recommended that we do IVF with ICSI. This was very unexpected news and I am a bit concerned about it. FRom what I have read (and I have not done a ton of research), ICSI can increase birth defects and is possibly linked to autism. Does anyone have any advice or info regarding ICSI? Has anyone had IVF with ICSI? Thanks![/quote] While I think your research is accurate there are some things to keep in mind: 1) I think the increase is very slight and 2) the population that does IVF with ICSI is experiencing infertility, which very often is age related. Since there seem to be some links to autism from older parents, then you can assume IVF with ICSI with older parents would show increased autism. Talk to the clinic- I know we got a TON of paperwork from SG which discussed this and the related risks.[/quote]
