Embryo Grading

[AshleyAsh]

Hello everyone! I had a FET today transferring a 4/5 AB PGS tested embryo. Has anyone else transferred with this grade and gotten a BFP? I’m not very familiar with the grading and am just worried about everything as I anticipate the tww. I have gone through 5 retrievals, one failed transfer and I have a 1-year-old from the second transfer. Thanks for your input!

The grade doesn’t matter so much since your embryo is PGS tested! Ours was AB as well (not sure of number) and we used assisted hatching which I think is standard now for FETs. I was obsessively googling the B and thought maybe my boy wouldn’t implant but he did! we are both measuring a week ahead and look healthy! So hopeful for you!

Hi - if I've pasted the link correctly, then this paper gives a nice little table and graph with the odds for each embryo grade. This is probably accurate on a population level, but on a individual level things seem more random. There are so many factors at work! You seem to be doing well tho and best of luck 🙂

We transferred 2 4AB embryos for our 2nd FET August 18 in Ukraine. Got our BFP (last beta today at 17dpt was 6946) and waiting for our first ultrasound next Wednesday to see how many are in there!

Our first FET was a chemical and was a 4 BB embryo.
