Tests - What are they?
Tests - What are they?
J have been referred to a clinic in London for various tests to investigate repeated miscarriage/failed implantation. My history is that I am 37, have periodically high FSH, poor responder to IVF drugs but no other problems (that I am aware of). I have had one failed IVF (3 eggs - 3 embies - one still frozen) and one failed ICSI (7 eggs - 5 mature - 3 fertilised - one abnormal and 2 failed to divide so no ET), multiple failed IUIs and one miscarriage after a natural cycle (Blighted ovum)<br><br>The tests inc the following:-<br>Chromosomes (Male and female)<br>FBC<br>Blood Group<br>Antiphospholipid Antibody (APS) tests x 2<br>TEG (Thrombo-elastograph) studies<br>Factor V Leiden<br>Activated Protein C Resistance<br><br>I have little idea what most of these are and wonder if anyone can tell me what they are and what they will show. <br><br>Many thanks,<br>Allison.
