Hi, just wondering if anyone can tell me what the difference is if eggs are transferred at 3 days or 5 days? I have been booked in for a 5 day transfer on Saturday. Thank you x

Many doctors have told me that Day 5 (blastocyst) transfers have a higher success rate because they are more developed than Day 3. My doctor said it is a 40% success rate (pregnancy not live birth) for a blastocyst, less for a Day 3 x

I agree with Anna_88. 5de are stronger and have higher success rates. I had only 5det.
