Hi It looks like I will probably have IVF for genetic screening reasons and wondered if anyone else had been through this?

Thanks

My friend has had her two children this way. You have a great chance of success since no fertility issues. Good luck x

Yes, I'm doing ICSI with PGD. Success rates depend on so many factors, not least age. For me, it's a numbers game of getting the most embryos possible on the basis that a large number will be no use because of my age, and of the rest 50 % will have the genetic condition.

There is a really supportive thread on Fertility Friends called TTC with PGS/PGD which is worth checking out for a bit more advice. Good luck, it's a lot to take in!
