What Patients Need to Know About Mosaic Embryos and PGT-A with Katie Herrero

[@arnib8046]

We did not do PGT-A cause we are worried we only have 1 precious embryo but we hope for the best we did Blood genetic testing and we are good.

I wish our clinic had counseled us not to discard. Our chromosomal normal male embryo became a pregnancy with severe complications, he actually had a micro-deletion, we lost him full term. We donated our aneuploid embryos and one mosaic to research. It was little less than a year ago. I am so hopeful we can get them back. So much good advice here. we may have no embryos left. I am calling our clinic right away to see if they still have them.

On my second retrieval I got 15 blastocysts, after pgt a testing, we got 1 normal embryo and two low mosaic embryos... my nurse emailed me saying that she's very sorry... I'm not sure what she's apologizing for... what does this mean? And is this really that bad of news?

Please do you get pregnant with the 1 normal embryo

Only 2 out of 7 of my embryos were genetically ok. 5 are abnormal 😭

I had the same result on my 1st ivf retrieval...
