Thalassemia does not significantly affect embryo ploidy outcomes in women undergoing IVF with preimplantation genetic testing

Overall, no significant differences were observed after adjustment for age, BMI, and AMH; however, a mild decrease in euploid proportion was noted among thalassemia women aged 35-40 years. These findings suggest that thalassemia does not generally impair embryo chromosomal integrity but that careful counseling may be warranted in this specific age group.

Abstract

Overall, no significant differences were observed after adjustment for age, BMI, and AMH; however, a mild decrease in euploid proportion was noted among thalassemia women aged 35-40 years. These findings suggest that thalassemia does not generally impair embryo chromosomal integrity but that careful counseling may be warranted in this specific age group.
