Should I transfer euploid embryos with suspected abnormalities?

I’m so torn. We made five euploid embryos from our first EC. I thought—wow, we’re done. We transferred three; two failed completely, one wavered for weeks around 100-300 HCG before failing. We then found out that my husband has high sperm fragmentation, and about 40% of his sperm are compromised.

The doctors say I can transfer the last two if I want, but they’re overall recommending we do another EC after his sperm improves and start all over. We’re working with a doctor who’s investigating deep DNA issues within even euploid embryos, and they seem to think we’re a prime case. (Great!) After everything, I just don’t want to put myself through more loss, or a more traumatic situation like a TFMR. Plus, these are our lowest graded embryos. Would deeply appreciate any thoughts/advice.
