For any IVF patient, the embryo transfer
procedure is an exciting and stressful milestone
in their fertility treatment. After the weeks of
medications and monitoring, the egg retrieval
procedure and the anxious wait to see how the
embryos develop, this final step of the IVF
process is full of potential. Once the embryos
has been placed in the uterus, one last thing
must happen before a patient is officially
pregnant implantation.

What is embryo implantation?
Implantation occurs when an embryo attaches to
the wall of the uterus in the endometrial lining.
In IVF, it occurs six to ten days after the egg
retrieval process, which is one to five days
after the embryo transfer. This equates to days
20 to 24 of an ideal 28 day menstrual cycle.

Implantation success rates
The rate at which embryos successfully implant
depends mostly on two factors the quality of the
embryo and the receptiveness of the uterus. Most
implantation failures are due to chromosomal
abnormalities in the embryo, which explains why
implantation rates go down as a woman ages. If a
patient suffers from poor egg quality, the
resulting embryos may not be healthy enough to
implant.

After embryo transferTake it easy
While theres no evidence that bed rest is
beneficial after transfer, finding ways to relax
during the dreaded two week wait between
transfer and your official pregnancy test is good
common sense. You have been through so much in
the weeks leading up to the transfer, and this is
an important time to nurture yourself. Get plenty
of sleep and listen to your body if you want to
take a day off to cuddle up on the couch and
watch Netflix, go for it. If you feel anxious and
want to move around, go for a quiet walk
somewhere soothing.

Eat as if youre already pregnant
There are a lot of implantation diets and
miracle foods discussed on the internet, but no
real evidence to back up their claims. If you
over-focus on one food or group of foods you may
be missing out on the balanced nutrition you need
to build a healthy baby. The best diet to aid
implantation is the same diet you should be
eating throughout your treatment and pregnancy
nutritionally balanced with lots of protein,
fiber, and vegetables. Avoid foods like
high-mercury fish and soft cheeses, and check
with your doctor about any vitamins or
supplements you should be taking. Of course,
avoid all harmful substances such as alcohol,
nicotine, and caffeine.
