Alternatively, the flawed embryos might have nothing to do with the donor eggs, and could be a result of problem sperm. There are so many problems with these studies that they hardly mean anything, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mati, yes, there seem to be problems with the studies, but my point was that apparently there have never been previous studies *comparing* the health/viability of eggs/embryos from younger vs. older women. Thus, the popular notion that older women's eggs are inferior because they are older may be a myth. B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
