I have used embryoglu twice and both worked for me by his grace.

the official stats is there is not enough evidence to say it does help but people have obviously had success using it so, since there is also no evidence it does any harm, if your clinic offers it and it’s either free or affordable for you and you want to try something different there’s no harm to it is the summary. There’s obviously no guarantees as a lot of the time the reason transfers don’t work is the embryo itself so it won’t change an outcome of the embryos not the right one but might just help with helping implantation of a viable embryo, especially if you’ve had repeated implantation failure in the past. Best of luck to you! Xx

I had it on my last try, my initial test was positive but unfortunately it came away after 1.5wks. That could've been for any reason though so can't say if the glue worked or didn't work. I don't think it's guaranteed to work; Google says there is limited scientific evidence to support its use, and some studies have found no benefit but then elsewhere it says can improve chances up to 20%. So I guess it comes down to choice, piece of mind and affordability.

Hi. If we could just improve on this, then we would only need one go and the NHS would fund it. Have a look at what the HFEA say on their treatment add on section and read the comments here. I wish you well with whatever you choose. Diane

no experience of success yet but just wanted to say our clinic includes it as standard as they feel there is enough evidence to support and so want to give best chance. 🤞🏼

hi, to second Diane’s comments, the HFEA website gives information relating to the evidence base. I tried it for one transfer which was unsuccessful and didn’t pay for it again and had two later transfers which were successful. Good luck xx

I had one transfer which was successful without embryo glue, one failed without, and one successful using the embryo glue. On this transfer I also had a hcg infusion at time of transfer. I’m not sure what caused the success (as I had already had one success without it). Because we had a failed transfer we just threw whatever was available at the next one, not sure if that caused the success. Wishing you the best of luck
