[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just started at SGF and noticed it seems like no one does day 3 transfers. My previous clinic had an excellent lab and at the time (4 years ago) they would have you tentatively down as a day 3 transfer until the lab report showed that there were still plenty of embryos growing. I wonder if SGF philosophy is possibly tainted by the Maryland IVF insurance mandate and that "attempts" are classified by transfers? [/quote] Can you explain what the Maryland IVF insurance mandate has to do with when they’d choose to transfer? Not familiar with this.[/quote] Maryland insurances cover 3 IVF attempts per live birth. If what I've heard is true, an "attempt" is the actual embryo transfer, not the cycle itself. My thinking is given this, if you only have a couple of embryos at day 3, you might as well wait until day 5 and make sure you're not wasting an "attempt" on an embryo that may end up arresting before blast.
