Episode Summary If you're getting ready for a transfer, you've had one fail, or you're wondering whether to test your embryos, this episode is for you. In Part 2 of my IVF FAQ series, I answer the transfer questions I get asked most: should you do PGT testing, is a fresh or frozen transfer better, and when is it actually safe to stop progesterone? I explain why a PGT normal embryo still isn't a guarantee. I cover what a progesterone level above 1.5 on trigger day means for your implantation window, and why stopping progesterone by the calendar instead of a lab result can put a pregnancy at risk. You'll also learn the four ways I support women through a transfer, why this is not the time to add new supplements or start a detox, and what to do next if IVF hasn't worked yet. In this episode, you’ll learn: – A PGT normal embryo rules out chromosomal issues, not every health problem. – Fresh and frozen transfers have similar success rates, so how you recover after retrieval matters more. – Progesterone above 1.5 on trigger day often means your implantation window has shifted. – Test before you stop progesterone, because some placentas aren't ready until week 16 or later. – What got you pregnant keeps you pregnant, so transfer is not the time for new supplements. – A failed IVF cycle is information, not a verdict.
