How many days after frozen embryo transfer will implant?

The emergence of in vitro fertilization technology can be said to be a blessing for some infertile families. Generally speaking, it takes a certain amount of time for frozen embryos to implant successfully during in vitro fertilization. So, how many days does it take for a frozen fetus to implant? According to the physical conditions of different women, the individual time is also different. Below we will give you a brief introduction to this knowledge.

How many days after frozen embryo transfer will implant?

It usually takes 3-5 days for frozen embryos to implant after IVF transfer. Because each woman's physical condition is different, the time it takes for frozen embryos to implant after in vitro fertilization is also different. For some women, the frozen embryos successfully implant within 3-7 days after transplantation, while for some women, it takes 7-14 days for successful implantation. Therefore, doctors usually recommend that female friends who are conceiving through IVF should come to the hospital for a blood test on the 14th day after the IVF transfer to check whether the frozen embryos have implanted and whether they are pregnant.

From a female perspective, when choosing fresh embryo transfer, the female body has just undergone ovulation induction and will have temporary endocrine disorders, requiring proper conditioning for a few days. There is no such concern when choosing frozen embryos. Women can recuperate with peace of mind and thaw the embryos for transplantation when their physical condition has returned to its best. For some women, the success rate of frozen embryos is higher.

Precautions after frozen embryo transfer

First, do not hold your urine after the transplant. Go to the bathroom in time if you feel the urge to urinate: the bladder is located in front of the uterus. When there is a lot of urine in the bladder, it will compress the uterus and may cause uterine contraction. At the same time, everyone is encouraged to drink more water and go to the bathroom more often after the transplant. Because disinfectants cannot be used during transplant operations to avoid affecting the embryo, doctors only flush the vagina thoroughly during these operations instead of disinfecting it. However, women's urethra is very short and close to the vagina, making it easy to get urinary tract infection after surgery. Drinking more water and urinating more often will flush the urethra and reduce the chance of urinary tract infection.

Second, after the transplant, you usually only need to rest in bed for 1-2 days. If you are older, you can lie down for a while longer. The main purpose of rest is to keep the uterus in a relaxed state after transplantation. Relaxation of the whole body is conducive to the quietness of the uterus. Lie down in whatever way is most relaxing and comfortable. Don't assume that any particular posture is good for you. Don't be nervous or worry about where to put your hands and legs, which may cause the fetus to fall out.

Third, constipation should be avoided after the transplant surgery: For a period of time after the transplant surgery, women will be less active than usual, especially those who have undergone transplantation during the egg retrieval cycle. Their ovaries are relatively large and are not suitable for strenuous exercise. In addition, the use of progesterone may cause reduced intestinal activity, dry stools, and constipation.

Fourth, avoid catching a cold within two weeks after transplantation: During the two weeks after frozen embryo transplantation, avoid going to crowded places with poor air circulation. When the weather changes, add clothes in time to avoid catching a cold. Because colds can have an impact on pregnancy.

Fifth, take medications and injections as instructed by the doctor: Two weeks after the transplant, you must take medications and injections as instructed by the attending physician, because special attention must be paid to medication. Taking medications according to the doctor's requirements is necessary for pregnancy, and injections are also to better help the embryo implant. At the same time, it is recommended that you do not take a pregnancy test too early, as this will not only affect your mood, but also affect the success rate. Just wait patiently until 14 days after the transplant to go to the hospital for a blood test for pregnancy.

It is important to understand when the frozen embryos transplanted by in vitro fertilization will implant, and it is even more important to understand the precautions after the transplantation. However, it is not recommended for women to undergo IVF frozen embryo transfer unless they have no other choice.
