What is Sequential Embryo Transfer (SET)?

Sequential Embryo Transfer (SET) is an advanced IVF technique where embryos are transferred into the uterus at different stages of development during the same menstrual cycle. It is designed to improve the chances of implantation and pregnancy, especially for patients who have experienced repeated IVF failures or implantation issues.

Our Procedure for Sequential Transfer Will Include:

• Embryo Development in Lab:
          * Two sets of embryos are cultured in a lab early-stage embryos and more mature blastocysts.
  
• Day 2-3 Transfer:
          * The first set of good-quality embryos is transferred into the uterus. These embryos interact with the uterus and produce hormones to prepare it for implantation.
  
• Day 5-6 Transfer:
          * The second set of embryos, which have reached the blastocyst stage, is transferred. These advanced embryos are more likely to attach to the uterine lining and release cytokines to improve implantation chances.
  
• Post-Transfer Care:
          * Maintain a healthy diet.
          * Take prescribed supplements like folic acid and vitamins.
          * Stay physically active and follow medical advice.
