The Embryology Laboratory is an integral part of the reproductive medicine center.

What procedures does an embryologist perform?

 

  • Retrieval and selection of oocytes
  • Assessment of oocyte quality
  • Fertilization using IVF, ICSI, and PICSI methods
  • Sperm preparation for IUI or fertilization
  • Embryo culture and monitoring of development
  • Freezing and thawing of embryos, oocytes, and semen
  • Embryo biopsy and assisted hatching for preimplantation genetic testing

 

When is an embryologist consultation recommended?

 

  • After unsuccessful fertilization or embryo culture attempts in previous IVF cycles
  • When planning the transportation of biological material

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does embryo culture take?


We usually monitor embryo development for 5–7 days.

 

What does genetic testing of embryos involve?


Embryo genetic testing consists of three stages:

  1. Assisted laser hatching, involving the opening of the embryo’s outer shell
  2. Biopsy of trophectoderm cells / blastomeres
  3. Genetic testing of the embryo
 

Why are not all oocytes fertilized?


The worldwide average fertilization rate is approximately 75%.

This rate depends on many factors, including the couple’s age, the quality of the oocytes and sperm, underlying health conditions, and the doses and protocols used for ovarian stimulation.
