Hi,

I was wondering how people have been getting on with the PGD cycles? How have you found the hormone injections/tablets

Looking into starting PGD, but am wondering if it is to soon for me, Im only 22. But feel i should start having kids sooner due to having the BRCA1 gene( 80% chance of getting breast cancer, and 50% of ovarian) so PGD would stop the gene being passed down. Also my aprtner has a translocation on his side, – so we have double need for it!
