[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No advice on this, but I'm curious if there was anything special that allowed you to achieve 4 PGS normals at age 41.  And it sounds like you had more than one PGS normal recently with CFA.  To get even one PGS normal at 41 is extremely fortunate.  What was your protocol at both places?[/quote]
I'm PP here, also wondering if CFA tested you for immune issues. Sounds like you had more than one unsuccessful FET of PGS normal embryos there.[/quote]

OP here. So sorry to the PP on losing her twins. I can't even imagine what she's been through.

Someone asked about my protocol at CCRM. It was the first time I've done an estrogen priming protocol. I stimmed with menopur & follistim. My 2 fresh cycles at CFA were at ages 33 & 36 and neither produced as many eggs or embryos as the CCRM cycle at age 41. I didn't do PGS testing at CFA. At CFA my fresh transfers were successful but then each time only 1 or 2 made it to blast to freeze and the FETs from these were always negative. Dr. schoolcraft doesn't think it's an immune issue so much as those embryos probably would not have tested normal. I stimmed for longer & at lower doses at CCRM. Not sure if it's that, the estrogen priming or the CCRM lab that has made the biggest difference this cycle?

Thanks for everyone's advice on transferring 1 vs 2. I am going to go with 1.  [/quote]

I wondered if the lab was part of my problem and switched from a small clinic to Shady Grove and did not see improvement in embryos making it to blast.  Maybe it was estrogen priming and lower dose.  Were you on any supplements for any period beforehand?  Glad you've made a decision you feel good about.[/quote]
