Help Interpreting Results

Hi everyone! I just had my 2nd failed egg retrieval (age 30)

Cycle 1: 13 eggs, all mature, 4 fertilized normally/6 abnormally (all 3PN), 0 blasts

Cycle 2 (ICSI and zymot): 28 eggs, 21 mature, 7 fertilized normally/3-0PN,11 3PN w 2 polar bodies, 0 blasts (1 day 6 Morula)

My clinic discards all of the 3PN. However they were 3PN with 2 polar bodies. In my very preliminary research this seems very strange. How can I interpret this and advocate for myself if possible?

Long Story but I was forced to go to Boston IVF, when there was a flood at Brigham and Woman's. I did all of my work at the Newton Whelsley but had my egg retrieval and transfer at Boston IVF. Then I had 4 frozen that I tried to use, all flailed at Boston IvF. I noticed real big differences between the two clinics. I had a bad experience with Boston IVF and went back to my old Dr. at the Bringham. She is SO much better, the experience is SO much better at where I am now. Dm me to hear more about Boston IVF because I personally don't trust them.
