Turners Syndrome?
During my first 2 cycles , 3 of my embryos tested positive for turners syndrome. During my third cycle it was not mentioned(different clinic). I am trying to conceive a girl, just wondering is this going to always make it hard for me to have healthy girl embryos for future cycles.
3 gorgeous boys, TTC girl
1st Cycle Dogus - Transferred 2XX April 2012 BFN
2nd Cycle Dogus - Transferred 2Xx August 2012 BFN
3rd Cycle Genesis - Transferred 2Xx October 2012 BFN
4th Cycle Genesis - March 2013 NT (Linng issues)
5th Cycle Genesis - Lining too thin after EC, Growth Factor added. Trabsferred 3xx 4Dp, July 2013 BFP!!!!!! 1st beta 9dp4dt 79, 2nd Beta 11dp4dt 189!! 3rd Beta 3783 (19dp4dt)

I don't know the answer I agree with pp! I would make sure the new clinic knew about the previous testing and that you have/want testing for it. In saying that after 3 embryo's testing positive and it having a genetic link. I would feel so much better going high tech if not for a daughter but just for the exclusion of a Turner's baby, not that there is anything wrong with a baby with Turners I am 100% sure they are perfect in there own way and 110% lovable but it sure would make your and baby's life 90% easier! Personally I can see how it may have implications I mean it would use an egg that could otherwise have a 50/50 chance of being a healthy girl. Good luck for healthy girl results xox
Hoping for a pink rainbow!

With FISH, it's not as accurate and the other X could be hiding under the one that was seen.

It's better to look back on life and say: "I can't believe I did that" than to look back and say "I wish I did that".

Having had a daughter with turner syndrome the fact that you've had three embryos test positive for it concerns me. It suggests that there may be a genetic link from either you or your partner. But it doesn't necessarily mean you cannot have a healthy daughter, but it's important that you make your clinic aware of it and you could consider contacting a geneticist to see if there is a link in your family that means you are more likely than the average couple to conceive a daughter with turner syndrome.
