The time with the highest likelihood of pregnancy resulting from sexual intercourse covers the menstrual cycle time from some 5 days before until 1 to 2 days after ovulation. [10] In a 28‑day cycle with a 14‑day luteal phase, this corresponds to the second and the beginning of the third week.
Number of cells and division rhythm: The optimal number of cells is 4 at day 2 and 8 at day 3 (A quality). In day 3 9-10 cells is B, >=10 is C (suboptimal) and <=4 is D (barely implant). A normal division rate is to double cell number each 24 hours. A higher rate implies chromosomal abnormalities and a lower rate entails possible embryo arrest ...
The duration of embryo culture can be varied, conferring different stages of embryogenesis at embryo transfer. The main stages at which embryo transfer is performed are cleavage stage (day 2 to 4 after co-incubation) or the blastocyst stage (day 5 or 6 after co-incubation). [1] Embryos which reach the day 3 cell stage can be tested for ...
Embryo transfer can be done at day two or day three, or later in the blastocyst stage, which was first performed in 1984. [1] Factors that can affect the success of embryo transfer include the endometrial receptivity, embryo quality, and embryo transfer technique.
The SART summarised 2008–9 success rates for US clinics for fresh embryo cycles that did not involve donor eggs and gave live birth rates by the age of the prospective mother, with a peak at 41.3% per cycle started and 47.3% per embryo transfer for patients under 35 years of age.
Gestational age: 5 weeks and 0 days until 5 weeks and 6 days old. 36–42 days from last menstruation. Embryonic age: Week nr 4. 3 weeks old. 22–28 days from fertilization. The embryo measures 4 mm (1 ⁄ 8 in) in length and begins to curve into a C shape. The heart bulges, further develops, and begins to beat in a regular rhythm.
In a reference group representing all women, the 95% prediction interval of the LMP-to-ovulation is 8.2 to 20.5 days. [31] The average time to birth has been estimated to be 268 days (38 weeks and two days) from ovulation, with a standard deviation of 10 days or coefficient of variation of 3.7%. [33]
Li and co-workers [53] found that 40% of the embryos diagnosed as aneuploid on day 3 turned out to have a euploid inner cell mass at day 6. Staessen and collaborators found that 17.5% of the embryos diagnosed as abnormal during PGS, and subjected to post-PGD reanalysis, were found to also contain normal cells, and 8.4% were found grossly normal ...
