Embryo-glue or not?

Embryo transfer tomorrow.

Having lost 4 embryos in previous attempts, I feel I/we have nothing to lose by trying embryo-glue. Husband not convinced. I really want to try, am desperate for this to work.

Anyone used this before or know any pros/cons, please?

It is used as standard in our clinic but haven’t had any experience of using ivf with or without. Having ET in April and will be having the embryo glue on clinic advice. X

We had it as an extra and were told no cons just possible extra help with implantation so felt like a no brainer for us? Think it was £100. The next round could cost us £5,000+ so the £100 felt worth a shot! Xx

It’s a standard part of the treatment at our clinic. I’d say go for it as it won’t cost too much extra and you’re already spending so much money on the cycle x

We’ve always used it. Like you I feel there’s nothing to lose. xx

We had it, and we got our BFP - so I know it def didn't do any harm! From what I gather, there are no downsides, and it's been proven to help. I say go for it! xx

Hi, I hadn’t heard about this glue before. Is it something only private clinics offer? Thanks. And good luck. X

My clinic doesn't use it as it's not been proven to increase chances when they've used it x
