Embryo Transfer Turkey

At MEDPRIME CLINIC, we specialize in providing advanced embryo transfer procedures to help you achieve your dream of parenthood. Our team of experts ensures that every step of the IVF process, from fertilization to implantation, is conducted with precision and care.

What is Embryo Transfer?

Embryo transfer is a crucial step in in vitro fertilization (IVF), where a fertilized embryo is carefully placed into the uterus to initiate pregnancy. This procedure is typically performed on day 3 or day 5 after egg retrieval, depending on the embryo’s development.

We facilitate both fresh and frozen embryo transfers (FET) through our partner clinics, ensuring personalized solutions to optimize success rates.

Types of Embryo Transfer

Fresh Embryo Transfer

Fresh embryo transfer is performed within a few days after fertilization. It is an ideal option for patients who respond well to ovarian stimulation and have high-quality embryos.

Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)

Frozen embryos are thawed and transferred into the uterus in a controlled cycle. This method allows for better cycle planning and often results in higher success rates, especially for patients with hormonal imbalances or previous unsuccessful transfers.

Blastocyst Transfer (Day 5 Transfer)

A blastocyst-stage embryo (typically 5-6 days old) has a higher implantation potential. This technique allows us to select the strongest embryos, improving pregnancy rates.

Single vs. Multiple Embryo Transfer

  • Single Embryo Transfer (SET): Reduces the risk of multiple pregnancies while maintaining high success rates.
  • Multiple Embryo Transfer: Sometimes recommended for older patients or those with previous IVF failures.

Embryo Transfer Process in Turkey

Embryo transfer is the final step of an IVF cycle, where a fertilized embryo is placed into the uterus to achieve pregnancy. The procedure is simple, painless, and takes only a few minutes.

Step 1: Preparing for the Transfer

Before the procedure, the uterus is prepared with medications to optimize the endometrial lining for implantation. The embryos are carefully thawed if using frozen embryos.

Step 2: Embryo Placement

A soft catheter is used to place the embryo into the uterus under ultrasound guidance. The process is quick, usually taking 10-15 minutes, and is generally painless.

Step 3: Post-Transfer Care & Implantation

After the transfer, patients are advised to rest and follow medical recommendations. Over the next few days, the embryo begins implantation, and a pregnancy test is done after 11-14 days to confirm success.

After transfer, the embryo implants in the uterine lining within a few days, and a pregnancy test is done after 11-14 days to confirm success.

Embryo Transfer Timeline

  • Day 1-3: The embryo begins to develop and attach to the uterine lining.
  • Day 4-6: Implantation occurs, and the embryo starts releasing pregnancy hormones.
  • Day 7-10: Early pregnancy symptoms may appear, such as mild cramping or spotting.
  • Day 11-14: A pregnancy test (hCG blood test) can confirm implantation success.

Success Rates of Embryo Transfer

Embryo transfer, whether fresh or frozen, is a critical step in the IVF process. Turkey’s clinics focus on precision and timing to maximize success.

  • Single embryo transfer success rate: 40%–55%
  • Success rates increase when high-quality, genetically tested embryos are used
  • Clinics typically aim to reduce multiple pregnancies while maintaining high success

Embryo transfer success depends on several factors, including:

  • Embryo quality (graded as 4AA, 5AA, etc.)
  • Maternal age (higher success in younger patients)
  • Uterine health and hormone levels
  • Proper timing of implantation

What to Expect After Embryo Transfer?

  • Rest for a short period, but no need for complete bed rest.
  • Avoid intense physical activity, smoking, and alcohol.
  • Maintain a healthy, balanced diet to support implantation.

Signs of Implantation

  • Mild cramping (similar to menstrual pain)
  • Light spotting (implantation bleeding)
  • Fatigue & nausea (early pregnancy symptoms)

Immediate Aftercare

  • Mild cramping (similar to menstrual pain)
  • Light spotting (implantation bleeding)
  • Fatigue & nausea (early pregnancy symptoms)

When to Take a Pregnancy Test?

A blood test (hCG) is recommended 12-14 days after embryo transfer to confirm pregnancy.
