What does this IVF + ICSI cycle with PGT-A involve?

This procedure begins with ovarian stimulation using injectable hormones to produce multiple eggs, which are retrieved via a minor outpatient surgery. Each mature egg is then injected with a single sperm (ICSI) to facilitate fertilization. The resulting embryos are cultured for 5–6 days, and a few cells are biopsied for preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) to screen for chromosomal abnormalities. Only chromosomally normal embryos are selected for transfer, typically 4–6 weeks after starting treatment.
