HOW MANY EGGS COULD BE EXPECTED TO FERTILIZE?
Not all the eggs that are harvested are fully mature. Immature eggs do not fertilize. However some of these eggs could also be matured in the laboratory under special conditions. The average fertilization rate for good quality eggs is 80%. Some eggs may be chromosomally grossly abnormal. These also may not fertilize. So the fertilization rate will depend on the quality of the eggs and the sperms.
