Culture to Blastocyst What is it? When is it indicated? What is Culture to Blastocyst? Long embryo culture in an IVF cycle allows embryos to develop to the blastocyst stage. As only the best embryos reach blastocyst, transfer on the fifth day – instead of the second or third, which This is the norm – it allows for greater selection, leading to an increase in pregnancy rates and a reduction in the risk of multiple pregnancy.

By performing the embryo transfer in a blastocyst, the natural synchrony between the embryo and the maternal uterus is favored. WHEN IS IT INDICATED? INDICATED WHEN: IVF cycles with a number to viable embryos greater than the number of embryos to be transferred and in when the embryonic quality is very similar and does not allow differentiating those most suitable for transfer and giving rise to pregnancy. Cases with repeated implantation failures. Cases of Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis, where long culture is essential to keep embryos in culture until the results of the analysis are obtained.
