Hi Peter,
I'm wondering whether I should consider Assisted Hatching. My Background:
1st cycle (IVF)- 13 eggs - no fertilisation
2nd cycle (ICSI) - 11 eggs - 6 fertilised (2put back -ve)
3rd cycle(ICSI) - 7 eggs - 5 fertilised (2 put back -ve)
4th cycle (ICSI) - 12 eggs - 6 fertilised (2 put back -ve).
We've just had a 5th cycle in which our clinic made a mistake and did IVF and not ICSI!! There was no fertilisation again.
I'm now wondering if the embies replaced on our ICSI cycles could have had trouble hatching if the sperm are not able to penetrate to fertilise the eggs.
Neither of the two clinics I've attended have mentioned Assisted Hatching.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
Gill.
