Low grade embryo, can they work???

Hi, I've just had my second failed round of IVF with icsi. First round actually worked but resulted in misscarraige, second round just didn't work at all. We have 2 frozen embryos but they are low quality, grade 3 or c I think it it. They called and said it was up to me if I wanted to keep them or throw them. Now I don't know what to do. Money is an issue as in we now have none. Ivf again would mean borrowing more. I kind of wish I hadn't kept the low grade embryos. They clinic said they have a 50percent less chance of working. But at the time I had like half an hour to decide so just said keep them, hoping the one 8d had put inside me worked, which of course it hasn't. Has anybody had those dilemma? If money is the issue is it more sensible to spend it on a new cycle with good grade embryos?? They said its a 50percent less chance of them taking. But they also said sometime they go on to be viable pregnancy. I'm feeling low and desperate now. Starting to look at clinics abroad as well.

Any experienced shared id love to hear. Thankyou

So will it cost you more to have your frozen embryos transferred?

I was under the impression that a round includes the transfer of all the frozen embryos you have? But guess it may vary by clinic? Or is it just the meds you have to pay for?

HoneyB11 thanks for your reply. I went to a fairy cheap clinic, they do rounds for 3500 4500 with icsi, therefor they don't include extras so it probably ends up working the same. So no, I'd pay 2500 for the frozen embryos to be transfered. I can get 800 back now if I discard them. I'm still debating whata best. I have a dr. Calling me next week so I'll ask. But I never know if they just want me to spend money with them xxx

Low quality embryos can make babies but lower chance. I've heard lots of stories of people having success with their lowest quality embryos. Could you do another stimulation cycle and transfer the lower grade ones together with a new embryo? Eg a double transfer with one better and one lower quality? Your clinic might let you do that 🤞 or transfer the two together and move on to a different clinic if it doesn't work. Wishing you luck, all these difficult decisions to make when it is already so stressful xxx

HedgehogMad thats really good to hear that some people have had success with low grade embryos. Thankyou. My clinic has been really strict about only transferring one at a time unless you are 40 and above and have a clear history of problems implanting. Well I've had no luck so far so hopefully now they would consider it with me! They mentioned not putting in 2 of a different grade from each other for some reason. I'll find out, I'm thinking could I just have the 2 low grade ones put in together, thanks for your reply xx
