[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you! We did ICSI. We considered doing half with and half without after hearing about that ICSI study, but our RE advised that ICSI was the only way for us and that the study had a lot of flaws. I'm so glad we listened--definitely listen to and trust your doctor. We used GW. I would highly recommend them. It was a great experience, and not just because it was successful. They really listen to you and since they are an academic (non-profit) medical center they are not all about their stats. They never push you into something you're not comfortable with. They advised us that tranferring one embryo would be best. We were worried because it was day 3 but again, I'm so glad we listened. [/quote]

Congrats PP!  Just to add a slightly different spin, for our successful cycle, we did end up doing half with ICSI and half without as a diagnostic tool to see about egg and sperm quality.  We ended up having equal success with fertilization rates, but the only embryos that made it to transfer were the non-ICSI ones (probably just chance the RE said).  It really does depend on your circumstances, so I agree to listen to your RE.[/quote]
