Common "Single Embryo Transfer" queries answered by top doctors

Single Embryo Transfer

Single embryo transfer (SET) is a fertility treatment technique where only one embryo is transferred into the uterus during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle. This technique aims to reduce the risk of multiple pregnancies while achieving a successful pregnancy. SET is recommended for certain patients, such as those who are younger, have a good prognosis, and have a sufficient number of high-quality embryos available. It helps to reduce the risk of complications associated with multiple pregnancies, such as premature birth and low birth weight.
