A Brief on Embryo Transfer

Embryo transfer technique is the most important part of IVF (in vitro fertilization) procedure. If the physician fails to properly perform the embryo transfer or some other lapses occur, the IVF procedure will fail. Thus, it is necessary to take help of the best and experienced infertility doctors to increase the chances of a successful IVF procedure.

The process

The woman going through the IVF is first stimulated with medicines to produce multiple eggs which develop in the follicles. Eggs are removed from the ovary after proper maturity of the follicles to perform egg aspiration techniques. After four or five hours of egg aspiration, sperm is mixed with the egg. The fertilized egg (Embryo) is cultured for a period of 1 to 5 days and after that, an appropriate number of embryos are placed in the uterus of the woman.

Infertility doctors decide on the embryo to be transferred in the uterus after assessing the quality of the embryos or fertilized eggs. The whole process is complicated and it needs to be performed with utmost care.
