Hi Dr. Saleh,

My husband and I were curious if we had several frozen embryos, can you test them before a transfer to know the sex? I really don't know if we would do something like this. But, we were just curious if the way technology is now days, if it's possible.

thanks!

That depends on what age they are. If they are Day 3 embryos, then PGD can be done while the result is available on D5 for ET. If they already are D5, then too late and inaccurate. hope that helps.
