Laser assisted hatching represents the latest technology used alongside IVF treatment to improve the likelihood of your successful embryo implantation as you might be aware undergoing IVF treatment does not guarantee you pregnancy onto the uterine wall.
In instances where IVF failure occurs because of unexplained factors or poor prognosis laser assisted hatching is often recommended for you. The objective of the treatment is to overcome any barriers which prevent implantation or successful pregnancy.
During the IVF process fertilized eggs will be cultured in the lab for around two to five days allowing them to undergo division and develop them into embryos. A healthy embryo is perfectly transferred into your uterus to facilitate pregnancy.
Throughout the developmental phase the embryo is encased in a protective shell for successful implantation to happen the protective layer must rupture. But in some cases the outer layer of the embryo might harden impeding hatching and implantation contributing towards infertility.
In laser assisted hatching a precise incision will be made in your zona pellucida before your embryo is transferred to your uterus. The aim is to facilitate hatching and increase the likelihood of successful implantation. The procedure has been shown to improve the chances of your embryo implantation and subsequent pregnancy.
The assisted laser hatching procedure is performed on the third day after your IVF cycle while the embryo is still in the lab. The technique uses a specialized laser to create a small opening in your zona pellucida , the protective shell around your embryo. Laser technology can provide you a control safe and effective method for this technique. Even though creating a tiny crack in the safe layer might sound simple it requires a perfect procedure and a skilled technician. The Embryology lab must have specialized instruments to perform the advanced technology and the entire process takes only a few seconds.
During the procedure laser shots can soften the embryo layer creating an opening without the laser directly contacting the embryo. It is done with utmost care and precision to ensure the safety of your embryo.
Laser hatching is more accurate as compared to other assisted hatching methods. It does not include manual handling of the embryo reducing the risk of damage and the precision is preprogrammed ensuring the safety of the embryo furthermore laser assisted hatching improves the pregnancy success rate.
