Ovarian Reserve Tests: What AMH Can and Cannot Tell You on Its Own

Does Age Affect Male Fertility More Than We Think?

Fibroids and IVF: Which Fibroids Need Treatment?

Day 3 or Day 5: Which Embryo Transfer Is More Successful?
Day 5 blastocyst transfer is not more successful for every patient. While blastocyst culture can help with embryo selection in patients with several good-quality embryos, day 3 transfer can be an important option for patients with one or only a few embryos. The transfer day should be personalized by evaluating the number, quality and development of the embryos together with the patient's clinical situation. In IVF treatment, the goal is not a blastocyst but a live birth.
New-Generation Technologies That Improve IVF Success
Success in IVF is shaped by accurate diagnosis, personalized treatment planning, an experienced team and advanced laboratory technologies working together. The EmbryoScope allows embryos to be monitored without interruption, while PGT-A and NGS can help identify chromosomally normal embryos. Micro-TESE offers an important option for retrieving sperm in men diagnosed with azoospermia, and AI-assisted embryo assessment systems are among the technologies of the future. In conditions that may affect implantation, such as a thin uterine lining, cause-specific and personalized approaches are essential.
What Factors Increase the Chance of IVF Success?
IVF success depends on many factors, including the woman's age, ovarian reserve, egg and sperm quality, embryo development, uterine health, lifestyle and the experience of the embryology laboratory. Since no single method guarantees success, it is important to personalize treatment to each couple. A thorough evaluation, the right treatment protocol and an experienced team help manage the process well.
