This was such an informative video. The ease of grasping the info was awesome. Not everyone is able to break things down like you perfectly did. I just subscribed. Thank you for helping families out there.

I’m currently in my first IVF cycle I’m 38 years old I had 11 eggs taken out. 9 were mature. 4 embryos were made. 3 embryos made it to day 5. Only 2 embryos came out chromosomal normal after PGT-A Testing and June 5th is my transfer day.

[TeamgardenUSA]

I did ivf last month. I got 13 eggs and after 1 day the doctor announced that 6 embryos had been created. I was very happy but on days 6 I received notification that there were no embryos. I was shocked and cried a lot. I want to have children but I have no money left

[LMLETP]

Holy cow this video was INCREDIBLY informative. Thank you so much!

[lorenagalvez]

This is powerful information. Thank you so much for educating us.

[zoem]

This is amazing! Inclusive, clear and comprehensive. Thank you so much!!

[kathleenr]

Very well explained, thank you so much! My husband and I lost our son in the Nicu 2 days after being born. His autopsy showed neonatal homochromatosis due to GALD so we got genetic screening done on us and turned out we both carry the gene of NH. We are planning on doing IVF with pgta testing hoping we can have a successful birth.

[princessstarmoon]

I was in doubt you have it clear now. Thank you

[nataliejiaravanont]

Wouldn’t PGT-A already cover PGT-SR since it is already looking for the correct genetic coding and arrangement? Or would you have to do both tests on the embryos if one parent does come back with the SR Gene?

[maddiebee]

Thank you for your videos. So helpful. Can you do a video on embryo grading?

[kebrad]

Thank you for this video, so helpful!

[jd-hslj]

Could you please make a video explaining each of the different possible medications that might be used during the egg freezing process and why each of them would be chosen to use? That would be so incredibly helpful ❤ thank you so much for the really clear explanations of things

[NDWani]

Is there any testing possible to separate x & y chromosome sperms before fertilizing the eggs 20:00 ?

[SA-nojr]

Thank you for giving awareness and informative.

[lisamichele]

I got one Euploid, 1 mosaic, and 1 with no dna. We want 2. I'm so nervous to transfer the mosaic embryo bc I was told we don't know how the baby will develop

[EmilyRuthKing]

My husband and I lost our 16 month old son in March to Waardenburg syndrome (13q deletion - severe case). We did testing on ourselves and it turns out my husband also has it (mild case).
Our only option now is to do IVF because we don’t want to pass it on again. What’s the best route to go? And what happens to the embryos that DO have chromosomal defects?

[debolinabhattacharya]

If baby had trisomy 1, can that be rectified by genetic testing in next ivf??

[veruzkatorres]

Did she cover something explaining what ptg-A?

[mandyz]

I only have 2 embryo should I still do the PGTA testing ?!

[SweetSapna]

Hi, Hi, …., could you please advise us if we should continue with pregnancy if we have Trisomy 20 in the PGT-A. Ur advise will be really appreciated.
