A member asked:
Does pgd testing in ivf assure that the sperm and embryo belong to the parents?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Genetic testing: "PGD" only determines the genetic makeup of the embryo If parental identification is desired, both parents need to be tested as well to prove "parentage" of the embryo.

We did IVF with pgd and used a 5 day blastocyst. We went for transvaginal U/S and all measurements were good except fetus messured at 6weeks 2days instead of 6weeks 5days. Also we didn't hear/see a heartbeat. Should we be concerned?
