Probability of triploid embryos

Patient's question:

My husband and I want a baby, but I heard from a friend about trisomy embryos, and I'm not sure what it means. I'm very worried, so I went to the hospital for a check-up. I just want to consult about what to do next if the embryo is trisomic.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if the embryo is trisomic, this condition can lead to problems in the child's growth and development, potentially resulting in congenital deformities or intellectual impairment. In such cases, a miscarriage is necessary. It is recommended to undergo screening during pregnancy to determine the chromosomal count of the child. Any increase or decrease in chromosomes is considered abnormal.
