Advances in embryo culture techniques have resulted in improved conditions for embryo development in vitro. A now common laboratory procedure allows for extended culture to day 4, 5 or 6 post fertilisation to assist in the selection of the best quality embryos for transfer.
The blastocyst is an early preimplantation embryo, which by day 5 has begun to differentiate and consists of a sphere of cells with an inner and outer layer surrounding a fluid filled cavity. The outer layer of cells, the trophectoderm, give rise to the placenta and extra-cellular tissues, and the inner layer of cells, the inner cell mass, give rise to the foetus.
With extended culture or blastocyst embryo transfer we can increase the harmony between embryonic development and uterine environment while reducing risks of multiple pregnancy by single embryo transfer with greater selection. Data shows that pregnancy rates are maintained with increased time in culture and may actually augment chance of success.

Even though infertility is commonly thought of as a female problem, it is actually caused by male and female factors. Male related problems account for about 40% of infertility and female related problems account for another 40%. A combination of male and female factors represent 10% and unexplained causes account for the remaining 10% of infertility.
There are several procedures designed to unite sperm and eggs which are effective in bypassing some of the factors that can cause infertility. Collectively these procedures are referred to as 'assisted reproductive technologies' (ART) and they involve the use of various hormones to stimulate the growth of oocytes (eggs). This multiple oocyte development increases the chance for fertilisation and therefore, pregnancy.
The most common ART procedures are InVitro Fertilisation (IVF) and Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT). The most commonly used ART procedure is IVF which is effective in overcoming a variety of infertility problems, particularly tubal problems or marked sperm problems. IVF involves removing eggs from the ovaries and fertilising them with sperm from a male partner in a laboratory. A couple of days later the fertilised embryo is inserted back into the uterus.
GIFT involves a laparoscopy to place a mixture of sperm and eggs onto 1 of the woman's fallopian tubes. Conception can occur in the tube and then the embryo travels back into the uterus as per the natural cycle.
