Blastocyst Transfer
A highly successful IVF method where embryos are allowed to develop for five days before transfer, improving implantation and reducing miscarriage risk.
What is a Blastocyst?
A blastocyst is an embryo that has grown in the lab for five to six days after fertilization. It has more cells and is more developed than day-2 or day-3 embryos.
Transferring blastocysts gives doctors a better chance to select embryos with higher implantation potential, improving IVF success.
Blastocyst Transfer Procedure
- Eggs are fertilized via IVF/ICSI in the lab.
- Embryos are cultured for 5 days in a controlled incubator environment.
- Embryologists monitor growth and select the strongest blastocysts.
- One or two blastocysts are transferred to the uterus on day 5.
- Remaining viable blastocysts are frozen for future use.
Why Choose Blastocyst Transfer?
- Higher implantation rate than day 2-3 embryos
- Lower risk of multiple pregnancies with single embryo transfer
- Improved embryo selection and viability
- More natural uterine environment at time of transfer
