Can you transfer mosaic embryos? 
This question is answered for us today by Kelly Loggenberg from Next Genetics (formally NextBio) who is a qualified and experienced Genetic Counsellor. This complex question and answer has been put together for all our patients during Reproductive Health Month. 

What is a mosaic embryo? To answer this question, we need to first understand the genetics around embryos and what the difference is between Euploid, Aneuploid and Mosaic embryos. How many chromosomes should my embryo have? Does a mosaic embryo have any potential to achieve a pregnancy? How to better understand the genetic results from your embryo testing. When should I consider using a mosaic embryo? What are the risks to consider? And importantly, what is my infertility journey and reasoning for thinking about utilising mosaic embryos. All this and more is covered in this informative video by the genetics counsellor.

Vitalab’s YouTube Channel tries to provide you with the best medical information around infertility, recurrent miscarriages or other just trying to conceive (TTC) topics, tips and recommendations. We have tried to cover infertility testing, fertility treatments, fertility medications and fertility treatments like IUI and IVF (in vitro fertilization). One of the most popular playlists is the How TO on all IVF Medications which is a step-by-step video on how to prepare and administer all your fertility medications.
