IVF is an assisted reproductive technology that is a very effective way to help infertile couples get pregnant, and it is recognized and chosen by many infertile couples today. However, the success rate of IVF will be affected by many factors, and most of the IVF techniques are carried out on the woman, so the factors affecting the woman's body are very obvious. Among them, it is the woman's endometrial environment that directly affects embryo implantation.

Before IVF, the doctor usually examines the woman's endometrial environment to determine whether the endometrium is thick or thin, and too thick and too thin will affect the implantation of the embryo. Since the thickness of the endometrium changes according to the menstrual cycle, normally it is 8-12mm, and if it is less than 8mm, it needs to be conditioned.

Generally speaking, the effect of a thin endometrium is more obvious, and after IVF embryo transfer, the embryo may not implant, or it may fall off easily after implantation, resulting in miscarriage. Therefore, experts suggest that patients must adjust the thickness of the endometrium before doing IVF.

Usually, women who are ready to do IVF need to come to the hospital for ultrasound examination on the 2nd to 3rd day of the clean menstrual cycle, so as to understand the specific thickness of the endometrium. After the endometrial thickness is adjusted, it will generally meet the requirements of IVF, but if the transplant requirements cannot be met through examination, then the patient needs to be conditioned and wait for the next cycle of transplantation.

There are many factors that affect the success rate of IVF for women, in addition to the endometrial environment, there are also ovarian conditions, as well as the age of the woman, embryo quality, hospital technical conditions, sperm quality of the man, etc., many factors will affect the success rate of IVF. Therefore, couples must do IVF as soon as possible, at the best reproductive age, and the success rate is high.
