What is Embryo or Frozen Embryo Transfer?
Embryo transfer is the final and one of the most critical steps in the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) process. This procedure involves placing a fertilized egg (embryo) into the woman’s uterus to facilitate implantation, leading to fetal development and, ideally, a healthy pregnancy.
Timing of Embryo Transfer
- The transfer typically occurs 5 to 6 days after the egg retrieval in the IVF process when the embryo has reached a stage suitable for implantation.
Types of Embryos Used in Transfer
Fresh Embryo
- Immediately transferred after fertilization and development in the lab.
- Usually preferred when the uterine lining is healthy and well-prepared during the same IVF cycle.
Frozen Embryo (FET – Frozen Embryo Transfer)
- Embryos are frozen and stored for future use.
- Allows flexibility in timing and can be used in a subsequent cycle when the uterine lining is optimal.
Blastocyst
- An embryo that has developed for about 5–6 days and reached the blastocyst stage.
- Offers higher success rates as it is more likely to implant in the uterine lining.
This process is meticulously planned and executed by fertility specialists to optimize the chances of a successful pregnancy.

How is Embryo transfer or Frozen Embryo Transfer performed?
Embryo transfer is a relatively pain-free procedure performed in a hospital or fertility clinic. This procedure is performed after the fertilization process, generally 5 days after the egg retrieval process in IVF. It is performed in the following steps:
- The patient receives a mild sedative to ensure that she experiences no pain or discomfort during the procedure.
- Once the patient is sedated, the doctor inserts a catheter- a long, thin, and flexible tube, into the uterus, through your vagina and cervix.
- With the help of a syringe, the doctor transfers an embryo or multiple embryos to your uterus and allows them to implant in the lining of the uterus.
How Is Embryo Transfer or Frozen Embryo Transfer Performed?
Embryo transfer is a relatively simple and pain-free procedure typically performed in a hospital or fertility clinic. It takes place after the fertilization process, usually 5 days after egg retrieval in an IVF cycle. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how the procedure is performed:
1. Sedation for Comfort
The patient is given a mild sedative to ensure comfort and relaxation, so there is no pain or discomfort during the procedure.
2. Insertion of the Catheter
Once sedated, the doctor carefully inserts a catheter (a thin, flexible tube) into the uterus via the vagina and cervix. This is done with precision to avoid any harm to the surrounding tissues.
3. Embryo Transfer
Using a syringe, the doctor transfers the embryo or multiple embryos into the uterus, ensuring they are placed in a suitable location for implantation. The embryos are allowed to attach to the uterine lining, which is crucial for a successful pregnancy.
Embryo transfer is a relatively quick and non-invasive procedure, offering hope to many women and couples seeking to start or expand their families through IVF or frozen embryo transfer.
