An embryo transfer is very similar to having an IUI or an pap test performed. It is essentially uncomplicated, simple and does not require readmission to theatre.
An immature egg is an oocyte that has not reached meiotic competency, meaning it hasn’t reached the first stages of meiotic division.
A common question patients have revolves around what happens after an embryo has been transferred back. Simply put, do you have to lie down after the embryo transfer?
Usually out of the eggs retrieved, we expect approximately 80% to be mature, and of those, between 60 to 80% will fertilise normally. This is perfectly normal.
Abnormal fertilisation sometimes occurs in embryos and can be identified by an embryologist.
New research has helped us learn that various chemicals that occur naturally in the female reproductive tract may actually improve or impair the sperm’s chance for reaching the egg.
Researchers believe there could be many factors negatively effect sperm concentration, but with the assistance of sperm donors, there is a solution.
