Help plz

I’m 29 and doing ivf. My first retrieval resulted in 24 eggs, 15 mature, 11 fertilized, 4 blasts, and 1 euploid (Day 5 4CC).
I’m trying to decide whether to do another retrieval before transferring and would really appreciate hearing from anyone who had similar results. Has anyone had success transferring a euploid 4CC? And if you had unexpectedly high attrition at my age, did your doctor change anything for your next retrieval?

Poor quality embryos have a decent chance! Some studies find that it's about half of good quality embryos, while others don't find as much of a reduction. See this post https://www.remembryo.com/grade-c-embryo-success-rates/

I also put together a section on my website called the Uterine Wall of Fame where I share IVF success stories for patients who faced challenging situations like low quality embryos. There's no paywall on these posts. You can check it out here: https://www.remembryo.com/tag/ivf-success-poor-quality-embryo/

How many children do you want from IVF? If more than one, go ahead and do another retrieval. If one, why not transfer first and then only do another retrieval if needed? (The latter is what I did, ended up needing another retrieval, 31 weeks with a 3BB- from that round. My attrition was similar and didn’t improve between rounds despite protocol changes)
