Couples who have the chance to have a child through IVF often wonder in what conditions their embryos will spend their first days. The embryos, whose further correct development will determine the possibility of a pregnancy. What is embryo culture in IVF procedures? Under what conditions is it carried out? Are the embryos warm? What do they eat? Find the answers in our article.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine getting out of bed. Outside the window it is bright, but neither too warm nor too cold. The air is clean, free of smog, you can breathe a full breath. The flat is cleaned and aired, the fridge is well stocked with healthy, varied products and the rubbish is taken out. We are sleepy and nothing distracts us. We have all the necessary qualifications and a well-prepared place to start and complete the project, which will take about seven days. Of course, we can proceed without preparation, but the likelihood of our project being successful will be lower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conditions matter as much in day-to-day life as they do at the dawn of life - of great importance to the embryo is the conditions in which it has the chance to carry out its development plan. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embryological consultation
<\/mark>
If additional questions come to mind after reading this article, remember that all Invimed patients qualified for insemination or IVF can benefit from the free embryological consultation<\/a>.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Embryo culture versus embryo development plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The embryo's developmental plan determines what the embryologist expects to see under the microscope if the embryo's development is going well. This first plan in anyone's life lasts about 5-6 days (about 144 hours), which is how long it takes from the fertilised egg to the blastocyst stage. In the case of the IVF procedure, some embryos are cultured for a shorter time because the first possibility of transfer occurs as early as day 3 of development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task for the embryologist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once oocyte fertilisation has taken place, it is the task of the embryologist and the IVF laboratory to ensure the right conditions for development and to observe the embryo with as little interference as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ability to identify individual embryos in culture is also an important element of working with human embryos. This is important because the selection of the embryo with the best developmental potential determines the patient's pregnancy and is directly reflected in the effectiveness of the assisted reproduction procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What influences embryo development during breeding?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The best developmental potential is shown by embryos with very good morphological characteristics, the right rate of division and with correct genetic material, i.e. those that follow the developmental plan in a textbook fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there are many factors that have a significant impact on embryo development. From a statistical point of view, in a young, healthy patient, slightly less than half of the embryos conceived naturally will complete the developmental plan ending in implantation. The doctrine of the embryology team is thus the slogan: Do not disturb! <\/em>However, as complete non-interference with the developmental environment is not yet possible, in the case of in vitro breeding, this doctrine translates directly into principle: Introduce as few factors as possible that negatively affect embryonic development.  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Air quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Invimed infertility clinics, quality management systems that monitor the safeguarding of such conditions in the embryology laboratory as the following are helpful in ensuring that embryos can develop undisturbed:<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n <\/header>\n
