Euploid

An embryo with the expected number of chromosomes.

Genetics

Euploid describes a normal chromosome count on testing. A euploid result improves the chance a transfer will work and lowers the miscarriage risk, but it does not guarantee a pregnancy, and testing only reflects the cells sampled.

Also known as: chromosomally normal, normal embryo
