The American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) has concluded that the available evidence does not support the use of preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) in an effort to bolster live-birth rates in women with advanced maternal age, previous implantation failure, or recurrent pregnancy loss, or to reduce the miscarriage rate in women with aneuploidy-related recurrent pregnancy loss.
