[quote=Anonymous]I hope you can filter out the rudeness here. I've come to expect it, but it's still jarring sometimes. Anyway, IVF mama here, just wanted to share my understanding is that there's some bias towards judging male embryos as better candidates for transfer because they have more cell division earlier. Of course everyone's medical records are unique, but anecdotally, all of my acquaintances and myself had the experience of the embryologists selecting a male embryos to transfer first when there were both gender embryos available, so please know that bias may work against your hopes if you leave it to someone else. In my case we donated our female embryos that we couldn't parent to another couple and those girls are beautiful and healthy. And, as we know, you can't know what your actual choice will be until you go through everything and get the final report. [/quote]
