Suggest you schedule a consultation with your clinic’s genetic counselor. You need to have this same genetic screening testing on your partner.

This is a situation where other people’s anecdotes are not going to be translatable to you. Ensure that your partner get tested and follow up with a genetic counselor.

Your partner needs to have the same testing. If your partner is negative for these, then it’s likely not an issue! If your partner is also positive, then the genetic counselor will guide you through options.

Sorry, wasn't intending to be a jerk, you know how online forums get... unnecessary snark.

For some genetic variations, even if the partner is negative, there’s still a chance that the kid would be impacted. So definitely talk to your genetic counselor. You might wanna consider doing IVF because you can test the embryo focusing on these DNAs.

You should have a discussion of your results with the counselor… make sure you ask all your questions. Fwiw I was a carrier for a few things that my husband was not so it wasn’t an issue, so no need to get worked up until you have his results and your screening convo.

Ok thank you!

As long as your partner isn’t a carrier for any of the same, you’re good.

Any women here with lean PCOS? I do not ovulate on my own (metformin regulated my periods but I still don’t ovulate) and am moving from three cycles of Clomid/IUI to IVF soon. No other issues have been found other than my PCOS (HSG shows tubes open). Curious about your experiences. And the reason I mentioned lean PCOS is because it seems for others with PCOS part of the fertility path is diet/exercise/weight loss but I am already very tiny.

Sad post, in need of some support **** my partner and i tried for 1 year to conceive naturally, only to have a miscarriage and start our IVF journey. 1 year into that - we had 5 healthy PGT-A and PGT-M tested embryos and were hopeful to implant. Implantation 1 just failed. We lost 20% of our chances that took 1 year to build. And tine just keeps ticking
