Retinol topical affect egg quality ivf

[Yellowbellow1212]

Does anyone know if using a retinol topical serum could have affected “negatively” the quality of my eggs ? I am paranoid after my egg retrieval I have less eggs fertilised and less embryos ( only one ) and last time I had 1 3day embryo and 3 blastocyst frozen … ivf

Sorry I am freaking out and pointing to anything that could have gone wrong

Check with your clinic and be guided by what information they give you - maybe stop taking the topical retinol meantimeJanet

Yes ! Thanks I stopped taking it after transfer. I just was wondering if it might affect egg quality but I doubt it
