Question 2

whit fluid after embryo transfer normal?

Accepted Answer

Any: Generally, fluid is used to cleanse the cervix reducing bacteria and increasing the chances of pregnancy.  The fluid can be left after the transfer and is experienced by the patient as leaking fluid.  We tell patients that the embryos can no fall out after the transfer.  The cervix is making much more mucous under the stimulation of estrogen which can mimic loss of fluid  vaginally. Mwww.jcrm.org

Question 3

would bleeding after embryo transfer be a problem?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Heavy bleeding, like a period, is worrisome but might still be okay. Light bleeding/spotting is 
t-o-t-a-l-l-y to be expected and is not to worry.

Question 4

what is the best food to have after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

: No specific food is needed.For healthy diet visit this site for information: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/
No tobacco, no alcohol, no street drugs.
Wish you good health and a healthy baby!

Question 5

what are the causes for failed embryo implantation after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

Probabilities: A high proportion of natural embryos do not  implant, the same is true for IVF/embryo transfer. Rates improve with pre-screening of the developing embryos, and with younger age of donor (40 have similar rates with donor eggs, very low rates with their own eggs.

Question 6

gas after embryo transfer is normal?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: Probably should not have gas after an embryo transfer but if you were anxious leading up to the procedure, which is completely understandable and expected, you might have done a little month breathing and got some extra air in your stomach that you are now passing.  I would not worry to much.  Good luck and i hope this helps.

Question 7

are cramps normal after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

Yes: As the uterus grows "stretching" pains/cramps become more common.

Question 8

11 days after embryo transfer, what should the hcg lvl be?

Accepted Answer

Greater than 5: To be pregnant. 'how' high depends on how many embryos were transferred, and at what stage (multicell, blast), among other things.

Question 9

frequent urination after embryo transfer?

Accepted Answer

Can't say: Check promptly with your ivf doc if it continues.

Question 10

what does heavy bleeding after embryo transfer indicate?

Accepted Answer

Several things: Bleeding 2 weeks post transfer can be caused by a friable, or cervix thats bleed easy, a small bleed behind the gestational sac, following intercourse, the loss of a twin and/or signs of an early miscarriage. If you have any bleeding, contact your doctor immediately. And remember, it may not be a bad sign. Probably would consider starting Progesterone to help quiet the uterus. Good luck.
