Can anything be done to improve embryo quality?
Ultimately the answer is no. If an embryo is of poor quality because it is genetically abnormal, there is nothing that can be done to salvage it. However, there are procedures which we do that can improve the chances of a borderline embryo. These include carrying aspiration of fragments as well as assisted hatching. It has been shown that procedures such as these can increase implantation rates in couples with a poor prognosis.
