After puncture of the ovaries, it takes 4-5 days and the most exciting moment comes - the embryo implantation . The process of transfer takes about 5 minutes. However, the whole critical period comes after this.
After the transplant, it is extremely important for a woman to be very careful. No unnecessary movements, weight-bearing - bed rest until 9-14 days after the transfer of embryos.
Symptoms after embryo transfer?
As for sensations, in the first two weeks, usually nothing happens. A woman can not experience a sensation when the embryo is implanted into the wall of the uterus. However, in the uterus itself there are continuous processes that lead to implantation and the beginning of pregnancy.
All possible sensations of a woman, such as headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, swelling of the chest and nausea are not signs of luck or failure until 14 days after the injection.
On day 14, a hCG test is shown, as well as a blood test for HG. Doing an HCG test before makes no sense - it is not indicative, say, 10-11 days after the transfer of embryos. During this period 2 distinct strips speak of the onset of pregnancy, while an unclear second strip or its absence does not yet indicate that all has gone unsuccessfully.
That is, a positive test result even earlier than 14 days indicates pregnancy, whereas a negative test result is not always an indicator of failure. Therefore, doctors do not recommend testing ahead of time, so as not to get frustrated ahead of time.
Condition after embryo transfer
It is very important to monitor your condition, so as not to miss the signs of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, which develops gradually. This manifests itself in bloating, headache, fog and blurred vision, puffiness. This condition requires immediate medical attention and correction of the support program.
