PGS with Donor Eggs failed

Main Board
1

I am 32 and have been TTC for 3 years, after 6 IVFs with my own eggs when I had one miscarriage at 5 weeks, one termination for medical reasons at 13 weeks and one ectopic pregnancy we moved on to donor eggs. I stupidly thought this was the magic answer. We have now had 3 frozen transfers (5 embryos in total) - all from the same donor round, all PGS tested, and all I have had is one chemical pregnancy. Each time I have been pregnant I have had an endometrial scratch the month before transfer.

I have had a hysteroscopy which found nothing wrong. I have factor V leiden but take clexane and aspirin for this. I also take steroids for the donor rounds.

My doctor is suggesting that next time we do a fresh transfer with a new donor.

I feel like there is something badly wrong for the 3 frozen PGS tested rounds to have failed. Could I be incompatible with the donor? Is there anything else I could do?
