  2. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    The trophoblasts secrete fluid into the blastocoel. The resulting increase in size of the blastocyst causes it to hatch through the zona pellucida, which then disintegrates. [5] This process is called zona hatching and it takes place on the sixth day of embryo development, immediately before the implantation process. The hatching of the human ...

  3. Embryo culture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_culture

    Embryo culture until the blastocyst stage confers a significant increase in live birth rate per embryo transfer, and there is no evidence of a difference between the groups in cumulative pregnancy rates. [2] Transfer day 2 instead of day 3 after fertilization has no differences in live birth rate. [3]

  4. Implantation (embryology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantation_(embryology)

    Implantation bleeding occurs between 7 and 14 days after fertilization, [56] and is a small amount of light vaginal bleeding or spotting that can occur in early pregnancy due to the blastocyst penetrating the lining of the uterus during implantation.

    Gestational age: 6 weeks and 0 days until 6 weeks and 6 days old. 43–49 days from last menstruation. Embryonic age: Week nr 5. 4 weeks old. 29–35 days from fertilization. The embryo measures 8 mm (0.31 in) in length and weighs about 1 gram. [4] Optic vesicles and optic cups form the start of the developing eye. Nasal pits form.

  6. Embryo quality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_quality

    The parameters for evaluation at day 2-3: 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.

  7. Embryonic diapause - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryonic_diapause

    Embryonic diapause [a] (delayed implantation in mammals) is a reproductive strategy used by a number of animal species across different biological classes.In more than 130 types of mammals where this takes place, the process occurs at the blastocyst stage of embryonic development, [1] and is characterized by a dramatic reduction or complete cessation of mitotic activity, arresting most often ...

  8. Blastocyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blastocyst

    A blastocyst is implanted five to six days after the eggs have been fertilized. [35] After five or six days it is much easier to determine which embryos will result in healthy live births. Knowing which embryos will succeed allows just one blastocyst to be implanted, cutting down dramatically on the health risk and expense of multiple births.

  9. Human reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_reproduction

    Pregnancy rates for sexual intercourse are highest during the menstrual cycle time from some 5 days before until 1 to 2 days after ovulation. [15] For optimal pregnancy chance, there are recommendations of sexual intercourse every 1 or 2 days, [ 16 ] or every 2 or 3 days. [ 17 ]
