Re: First IVF/ICSI - Is it all about the Egg?

Thank you. We had a consult with our RE and were told that about 25% of blast formation, while on a low side, is in the realm of "normal". Our Re also does not believe in the sperm DNA issues, attributing it to junk science and unproven theories. Her opinion is that there is no real thresh...
