The doctor will make the decision after discussing this with you. With IVF, the risk of multiple pregnancies is directly related to the number of embryos that are transferred into the uterus. We minimise the risk of multiple pregnancy by adhering to the RTAC recommendations on embryo transfer, which encourages one embryo to be transferred in any patients’ first IVF cycle, and a maximum of two embryos transferred in subsequent cycles for patients older than 35 years.

The doctor will make the decision after discussing this with you. Generally, two or three embryos will be transferred, but the number may vary slightly depending on the quality of the embryos and the age of the female partner.
