Dr. Chen Zhe
After embryo implantation in IVF, embryonic arrest may be related to chromosomal abnormalities in the embryo or caused by certain medications taken by the pregnant woman. However, excessive emotional stress or intense physical activity during pregnancy may also lead to embryonic arrest. Embryo development following IVF implantation is similar to that of natural conception. It is recommended that women rest adequately and maintain a stable routine with healthy lifestyle habits after implantation, and avoid taking any medication unnecessarily to prevent embryonic arrest.
