Hi Dr Potter, Which probe do you recommend and why? I am 32 and want to have the best chance of success.
Look forward to your reply.

Look forward to your reply.I am a big proponent of 24-chromosome testing such as GSN. The implantation rate is very high when you are looking at embryos that are known to be normal. The implantation rate for embryos in my practice with GSN ranges from 50% to 70%+ per embryos depending on the stage of development at the time of transfer. With FISH (2, 5 or 9 probe), you are looking at around 50% of the embryos that are thought to be normal actually having abnormalities in one or more of the chromosomes that have not been checked. This is particularly important when patients are younger and high responders.
