When first embarking on embryo adoption, families maybe concerned about embryo quality. Dr. Jeffrey Nelson, DO, Medical Director of HRC Fertility in Southern California, speaks in clear language about embryo quality and embryo adoption.
For over 25 years babies have been born from embryos of all qualities - 2pn, Day 3 & Blastocyst. Frozen embryos have no pre-determined shelf-life. Babies have been born from embryos frozen 25+ years. Many healthy babies have been born from embryos given a poor quality rating by embryologists and physicians. Grade A embryos do not guarantee you will have a baby, and neither do Grade C embryos guarantee you will not have a baby.
