I absolutely love this dr. I have learned more from him about why I keep having arrested embryos than my own dr

[sunitas]

Wow such a nice explanation..it's really helpful..I had two good quality embryo transferred but both miscarriaged.now I understood the reason

[Vida]

This video is truthful and depressing at the same time lol

[sureshbairi]

Nice explanation sir, please give information regarding important tests, before ivf treatment

I have a question that I never see anyone ask. How does the body know that a bad embryo has entered the uterus? I’ve transferred two good tested embryos and both of them failed to implant. We did a pre implantation uteral lining test and everything came back normal. We can’t figure out what the problem is. We can only assume it’s a mutation in the genes that wasn’t detected in the dna test. But if that’s the case, shouldn’t the embryo still implant briefly and then become a miscarriage? At what point does the body figure out this is not a good embryo? Do you think this is more of a lab problem?

My cycle is 25 days, with ovulation typically occurring at day 11/12. I have had uterine surgery.
I had 7 eggs collected, 5 fertilised and 4 blastocysts of "good quality" (so the embryologists said).
My Fertility specialist did not recommend Embryo testing, even though I was 35+ at the time.
Result: 3 failed IVFs: 1 chemical pregnancy and 2 failed FET, for a failure rate of 75% overall.
Is this a common occurrence?

Due to male factor infertility D&A fragmentation. We did ivf produced 3 good quality embryos but unfortunately 1st one failed. Since I have been never pregnant I'm thinking about doing Era, Emma, Alice before next transfer because my doctor doesn't recommend doing PGT-A testing since the embryos are frozen now.

The chart is showing red at age 32 women can start producing more embryos with abnormalities. My understanding was at age 35 is when you should start being concerned.

[azeezatalaka]

I have PCOS. Can this affect embryo implantation?

[ganeshpaliwal]

Good information sir thanks for important information.

[kadimetsamagi]

I had good quality blastacyst, but seems like my period come today😢, i feel devastated, it was very good quality blastacyst

[magdalena]

11 out of 14 eggs were fertilized after icsi. 9 of them were arrested at the zygote stage !! Only three of them were divided. Two of them were divided into two cells and stopped . One of them divided into 3 cells and then slowly divided into 5 cells slowly until the fifth day . AMH and ovaries very good. Eggs without fragments with a good image. Is this a case of gene mutations?

[kristinacolin]

I just had ivf and day 3 to put 3 embryo and it Fail I did want day 5 to put them inside but the doctor said day 3 I fell Sad 😔

[hassanaayuba]

Is it possible to be pregnant after embryo transfer without any sign?

[noybar]

Can you explain about embryo phases and blastocyst? What does it mean? What do the grading mean? Why can only blastocyst be tested?

[SucharithaThokala]

I got embroyo transfered on 21st Nov, yesterday did blood test and test came out negative. Did embroyo tests and got 1 AA normal embroyo transfered. Still no success. Not sure how to deal with failure.

[lilithssilvermoon]

What if your embryos were PGS tested? What if they just didn’t implant? (First IVF) FET- day 5 embryo-

[OostatmasteroO]

If we keep having problems with embryos and always get abnormal embryos, is there any way to improve chances of getting normal embryos? Or is it always random?

[inthemaking]

Dr Morris. Again Thank you for the work you do. My question is : how long after egg retrieval, and Preimplantation Genetic Screening should the embryos be planted back into the uterus? And also on another note. Which is better when ttc and IVF pads or tampons?

[chadlion]

So they took about 15 embryos. Dr. Told me only 5 of them are good. We chose 1 boy and 1 girl. They did the whole transfer process. But 2 months later dr. Said that one is not growing, it failed. I was wondering why did it fail if it was tested? Can you explain to me why? I believe you did answer this question in the video, but I want to make sure if my understanding is correct.
