Title: Cheap IVF Treatment by Dr. Malpani
1Freeze all embryos - Should we stop doing embryo
transfers in the fresh IVF cycle
2- Traditionally, all embryos were transferred
during the fresh IVF cycle. In the past,
superovulation used to be gentler, and patients
didn't grow too many eggs, as a result of which
there weren't many embryos . - Also, since the technology for freezing embryos
wasn't great , originally all IVF programs
transferred fresh embryos in the IVF cycle
itself. However, with better super ovulation and
more powerful drugs which help women to grow more
eggs, we're now getting lots of eggs and lots of
embryos , which means it's now become routine for
most IVF programs to freeze spare embryos, and
they routinely do this for patients who have
extra embryos.
3- However, if the uterine lining is ripe, typically
we transfer the best quality embryos in the fresh
cycle , and freeze the rest . The frozen embryos
are used only if the fresh cycle fails, and serve
as a back up. - However, there is concern that during a fresh IVF
cycle , the drugs used for super ovulation have
an adverse effect on the endometrium , and may
result in the endometrium not being optimally
receptive, even though it looks perfect on the
ultrasound scan .

5- This means that embryos which could perhaps have
become babies if they were transferred into a
receptive endometrium will fail to implant
because they were transferred in the fresh cycle.
The maybe one of the reasons for biochemical
pregnancies. - This means that the reason for IVF success
doesn't depend only on the embryo's genetic
competence, but also with the endometrium's
receptivity. This is why the pregnancy rates for
donor egg cycles , donor embryo cycles , and IVF
surrogacy are so much higher than with fresh IVF
cycles. When we use donor eggs or donor embryo or
a surrogate , we are transferring embryos into a
uterus which is being optimally prepared for
receiving the embryos. -
