How do embryologists grade embryos?
The success of ICSI treatment depends on the quality of embryos. In medical procedure, embryo grading is used to evaluate and select the healthy embryos with the best quality before embryo transfer. At Prime Fertility Clinic, our embryologists perform embryo grading. The fertility specialists assess embryos during 2 stages of embryo development which are Cleavage stage and Blastocyst stage as following details: Cleavage stage The embryo assessment of Prime Fertility Clinic refers to an international criteria of Istanbul Consensus Scoring System. Considering cell morphology and symmetry, embryos are simply divided in 3 groups. Grade 1 (Good quality): The embryos that consist of blastomeres or an increased number of cells from cell division. Each cell has a nice round shape, equal size, no fragmentation (small fragments or broken pieces of abnormal cells of embryo). However, fragmentation less than 10% will be accepted.

A BMI between 29-43 means overweight or obesity. The chance that women will deliver a healthy newborn is 45%. Women who are underweight will have “a secretion disorder of pituitary gland hormones”. The condition makes an anovulation then leads fertility problems respectively. Women who are overweight, especially for those who are paunchy, their body will produce the abnormal[…]

Smoking and drinking affect your fertility!
Not only aging, but infertility may come from unhealthy habits such as drinking alcohol or smoking. These are greater risks of infertility in both males and females. Drinking alcohol Even a small amount of alcohol consumption can affect reproductive performance of males and females. It is more difficult to get pregnant. Moderate to heavy alcohol intake may lead a greater risk of pregnancy lost or preterm labor. Moreover, drinking alcohol can affect hormonal system secreted by pituitary gland as well as hormones that control the ovarian performance. Therefore, females may have some issues before and after ovulation including endometrial abnormalities. Males who drink alcohol in moderate to excessive amount are more likely to have liver disorders. Increasing estrogen in males will cause low sperm count and poor sperm quality. Smoking Obvious evidence has proved that quitting the smoking habit, marijuana, coffee or drug use can increase the[…]
What is a good uterus for embryo transfer?
Endometrial preparation will be performed during 2-5 days after patient’s period starts. The doctor will arrange date and time for embryo transfer by considering ultrasound images together with blood results for hormonal testing in order to ensure the patient has a good uterine cavity. The uterine cavity that is suitable for embryo transfer should has these characteristics as following: 8-10 Millimeters thickness (not over 14 mm.) 3 Layers of uterine lining, smooth, visible middle line Not thickset or dense No fluid inside Once the patient has a perfect endometrium for embryo transfer, the doctor will prescribe some oral medicines and vaginal suppositories for the patient to take in 5 days before the transferring day. After that, the doctor will schedule date and time for the embryo transfer. 508
Is it necessary to take a day off after embryo transfer?
Many women who join the infertility treatment may be wondering whether they should have a sick leave after the embryo transfer in order to get recovery or not?

Fresh Cycle: Ovarian stimulation, ovum retrieval and embryo transfer will be performed within the same menstrual cycle. That is once the eggs and sperm have been retrieved and fertilized, the embryos are raised until Day 2-3 or they reach Blastocyst stage. If the embryos grow up well and be healthy then the doctor will schedule the transferring day using the selected embryo respectively. Frozen Cycle: The embryo transfer will be performed in the cycle of endometrial preparation. Therefore, embryos have been frozen.
