4 Embryo Transfer Success Rates

When considering IVF with 4 frozen embryos to transfer, you can expect high success rates if you have good quality embryos and good reproductive health. The likelihood of achieving a successful pregnancy increases with the number of high-quality embryos transferred.

Comparing Success Rates: One to Four Embryos

• First Embryo Transfer: The success rate for transferring a first embryo typically ranges from 30% to 60%, depending on factors such as maternal age and embryo quality.
• Second Embryo Transfer: Transferring two embryos can increase success rates to around 40% to 70%.
• Third Embryo Transfer: Research indicates that transferring a third embryo can yield a 95% chance of success. But this isn’t the case for everyone.

Factors Influencing Success Rates

Several factors can significantly impact the success rate of 4 embryo transfers:

• Carrier age: Younger women generally have better success rates.
• Embryo Quality: The quality of the embryos is paramount. Higher grade embryos have better chances of successful implantation and healthy pregnancies.
• Reproductive Health: A healthy uterine environment is crucial for implantation and sustaining a pregnancy, and any medical conditions should be treated if possible.
• Hormonal Balance: Proper hormonal levels are necessary for supporting embryo implantation and the early stages of pregnancy.

Increasing Success Rates with Surrogacy

If you’re considering using a surrogate, this option can further enhance your chances of success, even when working with four embryos. This option can be especially good for women who are facing low likelihood of success due to age or health complications in IVF.

Why Surrogacy May Help

• Health Pre-Screening: When you find a surrogate through a reputable agency, she will be pre-screened for health risks during pregnancy.
• Previous Successful Pregnancy: Pre-screened surrogates at reputable agencies have a history of previous successful pregnancy, which means they may have a higher likelihood of successful pregnancy.
• Age: Along with screening for health and successful pregnancy, surrogates at reputable agencies are also screened for age due to the likelihood of pregnancy success.

Having four embryos puts you in a good position for success. As you consider your options, remember that there are options available no matter what.
