[quote=Anonymous]I would go ahead, especially if you don't have any family history.  I would plan for the PGS, regardless.  They like to have the counsyl test in case anything comes up that they can then specifically screen out during PGS, but [b]PGS alone is much more important[/b], esp for AMA when we have higher rates of abnormals that would likely result in miscarriage.  genetic disorders are extremely rare but AMA abnormalities are not so rare.  Anyway, Counsyl got us our results 7 days after receiving the samples, so even if you start the cycle you will likely still have time to use them.  The results were not significant for us, we were both recessive carriers for not the same problems.  While its true most people have some abnormality its very unlikely you both would be carriers for the same recessive or have a dominant one that someone in you family did not already experience.  For this reason DH actually thought it was a bit of a crock.  We had a couple miscarriages though so i wanted to cover all the bases.  Without the miscarriages i probably wouldn't have done it, just done the pgs and icsi.  Regarding pgd/pgs poster- I understand SG only does PGS now (which of course includes pgd.)  Agree that time is of the essence, OP you are making the right call !  good luck & welcome to the ride!  [/quote]
