I am able to fly to California, and I read somewhere that I need to be there for about 10 days, but when I looked at the flow chart posted somewhere, it looked like I would have to travel weekly (?). If I go to California and only have to stay for 10 days, then I would imagine that I would have to work...

I'm from the UK and I'm starting on the path to IVF with PGD. I've got a UK based Clinic on-board which is happy to do all my screening, scans, bloods and medication so long as they have the USA clinic protocal and requirements. The only problem I'm having is which clinic in the USA do...

The only chromosomes present as aneuploidies in live born humans are X&Y (Turner, Kleinfelter, XYY and XXX), 13 (Patau), 18 (Edwards) and 21...

Hi everyone: It is really, really important that we don't mix up what we are talking about regarding Preimplantation Genetics. This medical procedure is widely used for two decades, by hundreds and hundreds of couples to avoid having a baby (or another one) with cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy...

I have been researching forever and I have no idea how to choose the right doctor. How do you know which ones are good/successful? Any recommendations? Any help would be greatly appreciated
