The secret of age—maternal age and embryo aneuploidy

The chromosomal abnormality (aneuploidy)
rate increases with maternal age.
By analyzing with next-generation sequencing, more precise information can be obtained.
Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) is an examination to screen the embryos with abnormal dosage of
chromosomes (aneuploid) in the IVF realm, and it is strongly recommended to the
women with advanced maternal age or undergoing recurrent miscarriage. By
excluding the aneuploid embryo transfer, the success rate of IVF can be
significantly improved.
