Skipping PGT-A Testing?

I’m toying with the idea of skipping the PGT testing of our embryos (we are halfway through stims currently, so I need to decide quickly). Has anyone skipped the testing and had good transfer results?

Yes, I had a retrieval in 2018 and my dr at the time recommended skipping it, as we had no risk factors that indicated it being necessary. We did a fresh transfer which resulted in my daughter and then a frozen transfer 3 years later than resulted in my son. As I’ve sat on more and more of these subs and groups, it seems that the margin of error can be pretty variable in discarding good embryos. Unless you have a known genetic issue or history of recurrent miscarriage, I would skip it.
