A: I would suggest you have a consultation with one of our Fertility Consultants.  If you have had one failed IUI and a recent missed miscarriage so IVF might be the recommended treatment.  PGS is a method to enhance embryo selection but there are other ways to do this such as the use of the Embryoscope, which monitors the progress of embryos in culture
