About this episode

Do you have questions about IVF? Click here to join me for The IVF Class. The next live class call is on Monday, March 10, 2025, at 4pm PST, where I'll explain IVF and Egg Freezing, and there will be time to ask your questions live on Zoom.

Embryo transfer is one of the most exciting and important steps in the IVF process, and proper preparation can make a big difference in its success. In this episode, I’m sharing everything you need to know about getting ready for your embryo transfer, from medical protocols to lifestyle adjustments.

We’ll talk about how to optimize your uterine lining, what to eat and avoid, and the role of stress management in improving implantation rates. I’ll also go over what to expect on the day of your transfer, common medications used, and tips for recovery afterward. Whether you’re preparing for your first transfer or a subsequent one, this episode will help you feel informed and confident.

In this episode, we cover:

  • How to prepare your body for embryo transfer
  • The importance of a healthy uterine lining and how to optimize it
  • What to eat (and avoid) leading up to your transfer
  • The role of stress management and mindset in implantation success
  • What happens on the day of the transfer and what to expect afterward
  • Common medications used before and after embryo transfer
