Hi Peter,
We had ec on Wednesday (20/0
, which resulted in 17 eggs but due to egg donation gave us 8. 4 fertilised normally and are today at 4 cells. My clinic wish to do a day 3 transfer tomorrow due to having only the 4 embryos.
On our last cycle we had 6 excellent quality blastocysts, and I have queried the possibility of undergoing a transfer of one embryo tomorrow, then leaving the rest until day 5, and if any are good enough to have a second transferred on Monday. I know that this is a procedure carried out in other countries, but my clinic are so far reluctant to conduct anything but a day 3 transfer, despite our embryos looking to be of good quality at this stage.
Should I pursue this matter, or do you think there would be little benefit?
Many thanks.
Trish
