Patient's question:
How many embryos are usually transferred in IVF? I retrieved 15 eggs. My husband's sperm count isn't very high. We are doing second-generation culture dishes. I'm 28 years old and very healthy overall, except for how long it takes to fully recover after egg retrieval?Doctor's answer:
Generally, those over 35 move 3, while those under 35 move 2.How long you rest after egg retrieval depends on the number of eggs retrieved and your physical condition. If you retrieve a large number of eggs, the more needle insertions you have, the more abdominal pain you may experience, and it may also lead to abdominal fluid accumulation. I retrieved 21 eggs, and by the afternoon, after the anesthesia wore off, my stomach started to hurt. My body is still quite good, and I only had mild pain by the third day. However, the doctor advised not to engage in strenuous or large movements, as it could cause uterine displacement. If there are no discomforts after the procedure, you can return to work normally.
