Has anyone been able to actually access Fertilo anywhere in the world? Gameto hasn’t returned my emails, same goes for the clinic in peru that was publicized as having a successful birth.
I think I’m weird about the embryo selection ethics. My goal is for every produced embryo without “serious” defects to get a chance at life. If the kid won’t see himself as cursed by his genetics (osteogenesis imperfecta, for example), then whatever, let’s give the kid a shot. How often do parents basically set a cutoff (any embryo with t1d has a cursed life) and just roll with the first embryo over that cutoff?
I’d be mad if my parents had the option to gene edit me and declined it though.

Yes, I’ve talked to one of the doctors in Australia who ran their clinical trial. He’s had several patients that have used it.
One of the barriers to access right now is it’s only approved for use with low-stim cycles, or “Mini-IVF”. Those kind of cycles naturally produce fewer eggs, and more immature eggs. Fertilo should work identically for regular stim cycles, but I don’t think there have been any clinical trials for it yet.
Thanks a ton for the response, I think my partner and I are good candidates for Fertilo as trialed, and I’d be really grateful if you could DM me contact info for a someone who may want my business.
