A member asked:

How to manage colds during ivf cycle? i have embryo transfer tomorrow and i coming down with a cold.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cold and IVF: If you are having , mild flu like symptoms, there may not be any need to worry about transfer. However, if you are feverish or having severe symptoms, it may be better to freeze the embryos and plan a transfer when you aren't ill. I would talk to your doctor about their recommendations.
