I have done 3 iui’s and 3 transfers from 1 ivf retrieval. My doctor [Dr. Peter McGovern] recommended pga testing from the beginning but we decided against it. Had I done it, I would have found out only 1/6 embroyo were good and would have saved myself the heartache of miscarriage and failed transfer. When I hyperstimulated, my doctor was very proactive with helping me get past it. I am about to go through my second ivf retrieval and I am now on Metformin to help with my hyperstimulation and also will be going through an era to determine if my transfer needs to be done earlier or later. Also, my doctor did half icsi and half ivf due to my husband being slightly below normal motility.
