Signs Of Failed Implantation After IVF

In-vitro fertilization is an advanced and powerful technique that has helped many couples having trouble conceiving, to get pregnant and have a baby. Therefore, questions like how to tell when IVF has failed could be on many people’s minds. You should know that not every process comes with a guarantee and IVF itself depends on numerous factors for its success.

What is Implantation Failure?

Implantation failure refers to the inability to achieve pregnancy because the embryo, once fertilized by the union of egg and sperm, fails to adhere to the uterine wall to form the gestational sac. It is difficult to find out if the cause of infertility in a couple is due to implantation failures, as it is not possible to know whether or not fertilization takes place while trying to conceive naturally.

Also, it is more common to speak of implantation failure in an in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment when, after several embryo transfers, the result is always negative.

What Are the Symptoms of Implantation Failure?

After an embryo transfer, there is no sign or symptom that can tell us for sure if IVF has worked or not. In general, if the embryo has not implanted, about 15 days later the premenstrual symptoms will begin and, finally, menstrual bleeding will arrive to confirm the implantation failure.

To take a different approach however, the IVF implantation failure symptoms can be quite evident by the absence of any changes. Implantation generally causes changes in the tendency to smell, increased sensitivity of breasts, vaginal discharge, and slight abdominal cramping. If these don’t exist even after a couple of weeks, post IVF, it might be indicative of a failure.

Vaginal bleeding may also be a sign of an ectopic pregnancy. This occurs when a fertilized egg implants into one of the fallopian tubes rather than that of the lining of the uterus. Some other symptoms may include pain in the abdomen, pelvis, or even the shoulder.

What Are the Main Causes of Embryo Implantation Failure?

Failure of implantation with IVF can occur due to problems with the quality of the egg or sperm, smoking, suboptimal laboratory culture conditions, and problems with uterine receptivity. Problems with uterine receptivity can occur due to fibroid polyps, septum, hydrosalpinges, chronic endometriosis, and inadequate development of the uterine line (thin endometrium).
