Any tips between egg collection & transfer

Not sure if I will get any embryos yet but had 16 eggs collected. Any advice how to prepare and improve my chances for transfer? Xx

I had 16 collected as well! My top tips would be look out for signs of OHSS (I got it and had to be hospitalised so I would recommend being aware of signs and symptoms

16 is a really good number because you don’t want too few or too many. You want that Goldilocks zone. I would say the best thing you can do before a transfer is try your best to stay calm and chilled. The two week wait is by far the hardest part of the whole process so just meditate, hydrate and be kind to yourself. 🤞🍀

Ask for a blood test to check progesterone on the day of transfer

Thank you! Is 7/16 a good fertilisation number? It feels really low to me :(

We collected 14 eggs and ended up with 4 embryos. It's very normal to drop significantly. We were told to expect 2 out of 14.

Ok fingers x thank you

Of my 16 collected I ended up with 3 embryos. Currently 25 weeks with my first transfer!

Thanks guys! I hope it is. Just to have gone from 16 to 7 feels like a big drop considering we are both very young f but let’s hope we get some good embryos. Thank you
