Embryo grading is a tool for the embryologists to determine which embryos should be transferred in order to achieve maximum success. At Genome we have full time skilled and experienced Embryologists who are dedicatedly involved in this process to get the best embryos transferred to help couple realise the precious dream of parenthood. #GenomeTheFertilityCentre #IVF #genome #ambujaneotia #healthcare #hope #fertilitytreatment #fertilityissues #pregnancy #family #health #parenthood

Below we outline the five stages of embryo development: Fertilized Oocyte, Four Cell Embryo, Eight Cell Embryo, Morula, and Early Blastocyst.

Decoding the role embryo morphology grading plays in IVF and its impacts on embryo selection and the journey towards successful pregnancy outcomes.

In this process, a #frozen #embryo from a previous fresh #IVF cycle is unfrozen and transferred back into a woman’s #uterus. The #pregnancy success rates with the frozen embryos are almost equal to fresh embryo transfer.

Are you trying to concieve? Are you battling incertility? Curuous about different options like IUI or IVF? Have you ever considered working with an embryologist? Unsure about what to expect? Read our blog post from an embryologist to get a knack for what to expect at your first appountment

The above diagram depicts the stages the embryo goes through to get to the implantation portion of the program and, apparently, this is basically the desirable stage to implant as it has a higher probability of sticking.

Embryos are graded based on specific physical criteria that allow embryologists to determine which embryos are suitable for transfer. Some clinics grade embryos 3 days after insemination, while other clinics wait until at least 5 days after insemination to begin grading embryos. Though there are slight variations in the way that clinics grade their embryos, most clinics grade embryos based on the following criteria.

It’s kinda crazy how things work out. Over the past couple of years, we have had multiple cycles fail us with various fertility drugs. We have gone on trips all over the country and outside o…

Poor quality embryos, or embryos with a “C” grade, are often discarded by clinics and never really given a chance. In this post we’ll look at what goes into defining an embryo as poor quality and what their potential is for live birth.

As an embryologist, I've been asked a lot of questions about embryos. For example, what makes an embryo suitable for transfer? How do embryologists calculate which embryo is best for transfer? And what is the perfect embryo?

This roller coaster ride just won't end. (But when it does, I hope we are left with a smile.) I was reading another woman's blog of her journey in trying to conceive. She said, "Life as an IVF patient means that you pretty much live in a state of constant suspense." She couldn't be more right. Our egg retrieval on Monday resulted in 9 eggs of 12 follicles. On Tuesday we got the first call from the embryologist regarding the fertilization results. Of the nine eggs, only seven were mature…

With all of the new studies regarding mosaic embryos constantly emerging, it’s important to understand what makes an embryo mosaic and why mosaicism matters. Let’s break this all down based on our current knowledge of mosaic embryos.

Stick with your diet and regular exercise to have a strong body and mind for embryo transfer.
