BHCG Level Zero After Embryo Transfer
Hi, after embryo transfer , on day 7 and Day 9 the BHCG level was ZERO, does this means there is a problem in the transfer itself? I’m 40 years old and I have 3 girls and I’m looking for a baby boy!!! This is the second try, the first one, the BHCG level was increasing from D4 to D9 and then it got dropped in D12 Any reasons for that? Specially transfer operation itself??

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
A fall in Beta hcg levels after embryo transfer indicates that the transplanted embryo has not been accepted by the uterus. The reasons can be due to problem in technique or a hormonal abnormality. Detailed investigations are needed to find out the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
