What is the success rate of a 3-day fresh embryo transfer?
The success rate of fresh embryo transfer on day 3 is approximately 30%–40%. A detailed analysis is as follows:
Fresh embryo transfer involves artificially combining sperm and eggs three days after egg retrieval to form early-stage embryos, which are then transferred at this stage to achieve pregnancy. This procedure is primarily suitable for men and women who cannot conceive naturally. Before egg retrieval, women must take a certain amount of ovulation-inducing medications, leading to hormonal imbalances and inadequate endometrial thickness. These factors increase the difficulty of embryo implantation, resulting in a relatively low success rate of about 30%–40%. However, if the woman is younger and in good overall health, the success rate of embryo transfer may be somewhat higher.
It is recommended to maintain healthy daily habits, quit smoking and alcohol, follow a light diet, avoid spicy or irritating foods, strengthen lifestyle management, refrain from strenuous activities, and abstain from sexual intercourse. If abnormal symptoms such as abdominal pain or irregular bleeding occur, prompt medical consultation is advised.
