Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

As Pre Implantation Genetic Screening (PGS) becomes now a replacement modality and trend gaining popularity among physicians and patients on claiming its ability to settle on the simplest genetically normal embryo, so it had been logical to review if taking cells from the embryo in its early development will or won't affect its growth as compared to the previous standard technique of ICSI and in comparison to a normally conceived embryos the study also will question if the parameters of the prenatal biochemical standard parameters will have any differences if the embryo is already genetically tested embryo and compare these parameters with non PGS embryos and normally conceived embryos.

This study is an ambispective, comparative, cohort, observational, single-center study.

The study participants' relevant medical records will be collected and reviewed for the retrospective subjects and after obtaining informed consent for the prospective subjects. The study materials that will be used will include blood tests and ultrasound. The study will involve three study arms

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is an ambispective, comparative, cohort, observational, single-center study that will be conducted at Wael ElBanna Clinic, a private center that is well equipped for all procedures needed for ICSI and fetal medicine. After obtaining informed consent, the study participants' relevant medical records will be collected and reviewed. Data will be collected from the subjects' medical records. Data will be pooled and presented in aggregate, without identification of individual subjects.

The study materials that will be used will include blood tests and ultrasound. The study will involve three study arms:

* Arm 1: biopsied ICSI embryos (PGS)
* Arm 2: none biopsied ICSI embryos
* Arm 3: natural pregnancy embryos
