GSN pricing vs. PGD with Reprogenetics
How much is GSN with Reprogenetics as well as a 3 probe biopsy using PGD?
Is the false /positive ratio lesser when you do the day 5/6 biopsy? Can you really biopsy this late without the embryo arresting?

GSN is more expensive than PGD for sure. A 5 day biopsy is going to be the standard soon my RE tells me. At 5 days, they can get a better read on the embryo as well not be at such risk for damaging the embryo. A 6 day transfer will be the norm not too long from now. It is just as good if not better than a 3 day, it's just that not many places offer it yet but will soon.

The potential benefit from a day 5 biopsy is that they are able to use more than one cell and thus cross check the results whereas day 3, you have one cell to work with and if anything goes wrong, that embryo is counted out.
The risk of day 5 is that the embryo has to be a blast on day 5 in order to be able to perform the biopsy. If it takes until day 6, the embryo must be frozen and a later FET planned.Mom to

I was quoted $3700 for GSN but I don't know if it is through Reprogenetics or not. I believe it is through GSN themselves but I don't really know that answer 100%. My clinic also has a biopsy fee of $1450. HTH!
Sometimes the best thing you can do is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess. Just breathe, and have faith that everything will work out for the best.
^^^That is exactly what I did and everything has FINALLY worked out for the best. I couldn't be more happier in my life than I am right now with these 2 blessings that were brought into my life.

GSN and aCGH are forms of PGD. FISH probes are also forms of PGD. PGD is just means preimplantation genetic diagnosis, so there are various ways of making that diagnosis. I believe Reprogenetics offers aCGH which is also 24 chromosome testing, though ever so slightly different from GSN. It will give you the same information. They quote a 1-2% error rate.
Using FISH probes I think is 5-10% error rate.
As long as the embryologist is experienced in 5 day biopsy, I have been told this is the safer way to do a biopsy, as its less damaging to the embryo and clinics report higher ongoing pregnancy rates from day 5 biopsies.and my HT
