embryo quality

Embryo quality refers to how healthy and viable an embryo is during early development, which impacts its chances of successfully leading to pregnancy. It’s assessed based on factors like cell size, symmetry, and the number of cells, usually through microscopic examination. High-quality embryos typically have evenly sized cells and a good number of them, indicating strong development potential. This assessment helps fertility specialists select the most promising embryos for transfer, increasing the likelihood of a successful pregnancy. Overall, embryo quality provides insight into the embryo’s potential, but it is one of several factors that influence reproductive success.
