Hello Doctor,
I recently had a karyotyping test done, and my report shows a female karyotype (46,XX) in all analyzed cells. However, it also mentions a variation in the heterochromatic region of the short arm of chromosome 15 (15p+), which I understand may be a benign polymorphism.
I am currently undergoing fertility/IVF treatment, and my IGS (embryo transfer procedure) is scheduled for tomorrow.
I would like to understand:
Is this chromosomal variation clinically significant?
Can this affect embryo quality, implantation, or increase miscarriage risk?
Is PGT-A testing recommended in my case?
Is further test required?
Is donor egg needed
