    1. I am wondering if this clinic has embryoscope technology. I have been reading about it and it seems like a very good technology asset. Can someone confirm or deny it? Thanks

    2. Hello, I have very heavy periods and problems with my cycles, I am trying to get pregnant but I can´t seem to get it. Is it possible that my irregular cycles have something to do?
