Embryo transfer guidelines

Embryo transfer guidelines involve careful planning to maximize pregnancy chances while minimizing risks. The procedure typically occurs a few days after fertilization, when the embryo is gently placed into the woman's uterus using a thin tube. Guidelines recommend selecting the healthiest embryos based on their quality and development stage, considering patient age and reproductive history. To reduce the risk of multiple pregnancies, the number of embryos transferred is carefully limited, often one or two. Patients are advised to rest briefly afterward, and follow-up tests confirm pregnancy. These standards help ensure safe, effective fertility treatment tailored to individual needs.
