Only a good embryologist can give you a good pregnancy success rate. Is that all we need to know? Definitely not. So, in this article we are going to cover what is your role of an embryologist, who are equally important in you pregnancy journey and how do you choose the right IVF centre for yourself. Besides, we are also briefly touching upon the fact on how a Fellowship in Embryology Program can benefit the budding embryologists.
Who is an embryologist?
When we go to any infertility clinic, we meet a clinician, a doctor who discusses all our problems and charts out our treatment. If we go to IVF, there is a team of doctors who help you in your pregnancy. There are few important people like the clinician or the gynaecologist who chart your treatment, do your stimulation, egg retrieval and embryo transfer.
Second most important person is the embryologist. Embryologists are doctors or people with science background who are trained in embryology. They have all the knowledge about embryology and have specialised in embryology.
Embryo means baby, which we keep in your uterus. We call it embryo. The specialist of embryo is called an embryologist.
What is the role of an embryologist?
When we make embryos in the lab, then embryologists screen them. After screening, they find out which are the best embryos. What is their grading? Is there any fragmentation in any embryo? Are there any changes in cytoplasm? All these things are seen by embryologists.
They give you the best embryos and help you for transfer. They see the embryo many times. They see the embryo from time-lapse or normally.
We see if there is any blastocyst in the embryo or not. Do we need any other laser hatching or any other treatment? If your egg quality is very bad, because of which we are not able to make a good embryo. All these things are told to us by embryologists.
Basically, embryologists have a very big role to play in a successful IVF treatment cycle. In an IVF lab, the main work of an embryologist is:
• We take out the egg and give it to the lab,
• then we screen the eggs, prepare them in the dish,
• prepare the sperm,
• put the sperm and
• make a baby, or make a baby through ICSI.
All these things are done by embryologists.
• Incubating the embryo in the lab,
• maintaining the conditions of the lab, all this work is done by an embryologist.
So, embryologists are a very important link in your treatment. If you go to any lab or any centre for treatment, then do keep in mind that if you are meeting a doctor, do ask about their embryologists.
• What is their expertise?
• How do they handle cases?
• What is the success rate of the lab?
• What are the culture conditions of the lab?
Do ask about all these things. So, as much as the work of a clinician is important, the work of an embryologist is equally important. Only a good embryologist can give you a good pregnancy success rate.
People who do not have much scientific knowledge, do not have a scientific background, we feel that there are a lot of problems that we face from such people. So, to choose the best IVF hospital in Bangalore, it is very important to have
• a good clinician, a good counselling team,
• and a very experienced embryologist.
