Does third-generation IVF still involve chromosomal abnormalities?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am 30 years old, my husband is 31 years old. I have a chromosomal abnormality, so we plan to do third-party IVF in China. I don't know if the third-party culture dish will still have chromosomal abnormalities?

Doctor's answer:

Chromosomes are the carriers of genes, and chromosomal recurrent abnormalities, numerical abnormalities, and structural abnormalities can occur. Most fetuses with chromosomal abnormalities cannot develop normally in early pregnancy and often experience recurrent miscarriages before birth. Alternatively, they may give birth to premature infants or malformed children after early pregnancy. If a couple faces recurrent chromosomal abnormalities, it is best to use third-party IVF to select healthy embryos to prevent the birth of affected children. However, the selection mechanism for embryos in third-party IVF technology is very strict, so it is necessary for you and your partner to consult with a hospital to determine whether you meet the criteria for third-party IVF.
