Embryo transfer is the process of placing fertilized and developed embryos into the uterus during IVF treatment. This procedure is typically performed on the 3rd or 5th day and is painless, lasting only a few minutes. A successful embryo transfer is one of the most critical steps in increasing pregnancy chances. The number of embryos transferred is determined based on the patient’s age and overall health condition.
To reduce the risk of multiple pregnancies, single embryo transfer is generally recommended.
