Fert report

in Infertility
So we started off with 13 eggs retrieved yesterday.  I was told that 5 were fertilized via ICSI and are growing.  3 fertilized without assistance so 8 total.  If I understand correctly, one was not mature and the other 4 were not fertilized.   I see that fertilization numbers really vary for women here and I'm not sure whether or not to be excited or worried.  It's definitely not close to buddhamama's numbers :) But I think that seeing how I am 38 year old I should be happy!

    8 out of 12 mature eggs is great!! You want to look at the fert rate and you're at 66% which is a great fert rate! Continue to rest up and GL with your transfer!

    I was told 2/3 or 66% of the mature eggs are expected to fertilize, so it sounds like your numbers are text book. Congrats!
