Blastocyst transfer is an advanced technique used in assisted reproductive technology (ART) to help couples achieve pregnancy. This procedure involves transferring embryos that have reached the blastocyst stage of development, which is typically 5-7 days after fertilization.
Blastocyst transfer is a type of embryo transfer procedure that is performed during in vitro fertilization (IVF). During IVF, eggs are collected from the woman’s ovaries and fertilized with sperm in a laboratory. The fertilized eggs are then grown in a culture dish until they reach the blastocyst stage of development.
At this stage, the blastocyst is a small ball of cells that has divided into two parts: the inner cell mass and the trophectoderm. The inner cell mass will eventually become the fetus, while the trophectoderm will become the placenta.
Blastocyst transfer is performed for several reasons, including:
Blastocyst transfer is a relatively simple procedure that is performed in the fertility clinic. The procedure usually takes place on the fifth or sixth day after fertilization and typically involves the transfer of one to two embryos into the woman’s uterus.
The transfer is performed with the use of a thin, flexible catheter that is inserted through the cervix into the uterus. The blastocysts are then gently deposited into the uterus, where they can implant and develop into a pregnancy.
After the transfer, patients typically need to rest for a short period of time before returning home. Most women experience little to no discomfort during the procedure and can resume normal activities the next day.
In conclusion, blastocyst transfer is an advanced technique that can help couples achieve pregnancy. By transferring embryos that have reached the blastocyst stage, the chances of pregnancy are increased and the risk of multiple pregnancies is reduced. If you are considering ART, speak with your doctor about the benefits of blastocyst transfer and whether it is right for you.

Before your first appointment, one of our clinical care coordinators will call you to discuss your case and review what appointments to expect. The clinical care coordinator will make sure all appointments are arranged in a timely fashion. Each of our patients is unique and treated individually, and the schedule of doctors you see will be tailored specifically to your needs. The doctors will discuss your care options with you and answer any questions that you may have regarding your diagnosis and management.
We are dedicated to helping pregnant women and their families after a significant birth defect or genetic condition has been detected. Specialists from both obstetrics and pediatrics work together as a team to determine the best way to care for you and your unborn baby, both during and after your pregnancy.
Whenever possible, we create an integrated appointment plan, so that you can meet with the multiple subspecialists involved in your case. Some patients come here for a second opinion and go back to their obstetrician. Other patients transfer their care to Columbia as their delivery date approaches to make sure their baby immediately receives the necessary specialized pediatric care after birth.
