[quote=Anonymous]For most people, you will have better success getting pregnant with DE.  You might have some immune issues or other non-normal issues, in which case you will have problems getting pregnant either with DE or OE.

I had problems with both - and finally got pregnant on the 4th DE transfer, all with PGD normal embryos.  For that cycle, I did immune treatment at SIRM, and it finally took.  The pregnancy went well but I was induced at 38 weeks for reduced growth.  The delivery showed that the reason for that was the umbilical cord attached closer to the side of the placenta than to the middle.   I read that one theory for the cause of that is imperfect implantation.

To the point, there is an increased risk of preeclampsia from DE, but it is more likely to actually get you pregnant.  You could take a baby aspirin each day during pregnancy, which some studies have shown reduces preeclampsia risks.  Also, all the people I happen to know who had preeclampsia had it with OE pregnancies.  The OBs test for it all the time.  The kids were all fine - just delivered a little early.

I would say go for it with the DE.  [/quote]
