A member asked:

Does a uterine polypectomy 3 weeks prior to embryo transfer cause a healthy with no chromosomes abnormality blastocyst not to implant?

Unlikely: There are other more common reasons for failure to implant.

Probably not : It most likely would have no effect but normally an ivf cycle would be delayed to give your uterus plenty of time to heal.
