Patient's question:
27 years old, previously had two miscarriages at two months pregnant in October of the 17th year and June of the 18th year. A week ago, I had a thorough examination at a hospital in Xi'an, which said there was a problem with the 7th chromosome, with a chromosomal deficiency. The doctor recommended doing a culture dish test. Now, I just want to ask if this chromosomal abnormality is related to hereditary transmission across generations? My mother had diabetes when she was pregnant with me, and I also have diabetes. Can I do a culture dish test with diabetes?Doctor's answer:
Chromosomal abnormalities may lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, or birth defects. You should decide to undergo embryo culture, which can determine the quality of the embryo for transfer and prevent birth defects in the child. If you currently have diabetes, you should first undergo medication treatment to stabilize your blood sugar before proceeding with IVF transfer. Go to the Provincial Perinatal Research Center to have the embryo culture done. This is a legitimate institution that specializes in this medical procedure, with excellent experience, technology, and equipment.
