Fertility Treatments

Embryo Transfer

Embryo Transfer is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), particularly in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). During this procedure, one or more fertilized embryos are carefully placed into the woman’s uterus to achieve a successful pregnancy.

The procedure is minimally invasive, painless, and performed under ultrasound guidance to maximize implantation success. Embryo transfer may involve fresh or frozen embryos (Frozen Embryo Transfer,  FET), depending on the treatment plan.

VivaVel Health assists international patients in accessing advanced fertility and IVF treatments in India, including high-success-rate embryo transfer procedures performed at leading fertility centres.

 Embryo transfer is recommended for individuals or couples who:

  • Are undergoing IVF treatment

  • Have blocked or damaged fallopian tubes

  • Have unexplained infertility

  • Experience ovulation disorders

  • Have endometriosis

  • Have male factor infertility

Causes

 Embryo transfer itself is not a treatment for a disease but is used to address infertility caused by:

  • Tubal factor infertility

  • Hormonal imbalances

  • Genetic conditions

  • Age-related decline in fertility

  • Poor sperm quality

  • Failed natural conception

  • Uterine or cervical issues (in selected cases)

When to seek medical attention?

 Medical evaluation is recommended if:

  • Pregnancy has not occurred after 12 months of unprotected intercourse (6 months for women over 35)

  • There is a known fertility-related medical condition

  • Previous fertility treatments have failed

  • Genetic screening or fertility preservation is required

Early fertility assessment improves treatment outcomes and success rates.

Risk Factors

 Factors influencing embryo transfer success include:

  • Maternal age

  • Embryo quality

  • Uterine receptivity

  • Hormonal balance

  • Lifestyle factors (smoking, obesity, stress)

  • Underlying medical conditions

  • Previous implantation failures

Diagnostics & Tests

 Before embryo transfer, the following evaluations are typically performed:

  • Hormonal blood tests (FSH, LH, AMH, estrogen, progesterone)

  • Transvaginal ultrasound to assess uterine lining

  • Semen analysis

  • Genetic testing of embryos (PGT, if required)

  • Hysteroscopy or saline sonography (in selected cases)

  • Infectious disease screening

These tests help determine the optimal timing and approach for embryo transfer.

Do’s & Don’ts

 Do’s:

  • Follow prescribed medications strictly

  • Maintain a healthy, balanced diet

  • Stay hydrated

  • Manage stress and get adequate rest

  • Attend scheduled follow-up appointments

 Don’ts:

  • Avoid heavy exercise or strenuous activity

  • Do not smoke or consume alcohol

  • Avoid hot baths or saunas

  • Do not self-medicate

  • Avoid unnecessary travel immediately after transfer
