EmbryoGlue

Hi all, just being hopefully & trying to plan getting to do a transfer. I'm wondering if anyone knows if embryo glue can be used with a 2 or 3 day transfer?

I've already decided that unless something drastically changes I'm having a 2/3day transfer.

Any info or opinions welcome xx

My clinic have advised it's not worth doing on day 2 or 3 as by the time your embryo starts to implant day 5/6 your body has already absorbed it x

It's hard knowing what's best to do when it comes to these things. I'm worried if I do or if I don't.

Thanks for sharing as at least know I won't be as worried if I don't do it x

My clinic use it as a normal procedure....I've had 2x day 5 transfers (1 fresh and 1 FET) both stuck, but miscarried later on and our day 2 didn't stick as far as we know.

You have to do what feels right..don't be left feeling what if x

Thanks hollibob, I'll probably use it based on the 'well it won't hurt' reasoning x

That would be my thinking if it was avaliable and you can avoid it, if it your doc thinking it may help, and won't hurt, then why not xx

Hi, reading your post and just wondering what 'embryo glue' is ? I have never heared of this and am very intrigued to find out more ! X

Hi daydreamer, when a transfer occurs apparently the embryo is in a solution that mimics the natural conditions of the uterus.

Embryo glue is supposed to be a better solution & encourages implantation. It's fairly new so findings are generally it's upwards of 8% improvement on not using it.

Ive read there are a few different solutions out there & embryo glue is a brand that seems to be the best.

Most clinics seem to be favourable of it but that could be because they get to charge.

Speak to your clinic as they should be honest if it'll work for you or not. Good luck xx

Hi Olivia, I don't seem to have a problem with implantation so no1 has suggested endoscratch.

Good luck with your next go! x

When I had my first IVF frailer they didn't use anything extra. I was on low dose 150 which they collect 11 eggs . They say that really good number being on 150 . They say if I go thru another cycle they will increase dose to 220 to collect even more eggs and they will use embryo glue and endo scrach . They didn't say that my BPN was becouse I got problem with implantation ... Is just happens ... What the doc say that endo scrach like embryo glue is one of the thing that will maximise the chances .

I had embryo glue and a day 3 transfer - we only had one embie left. Clinic said it was better of back inside than in the lab. Due to give birth in just under 3 weeks so I would say it's definitely worth a try xxx
