How many days are in between IVF cycles?
A fresh IVF cycle should not be done two months in a row without a menstrual cycle in between them. That means waiting about 4 to 6 weeks after the embryo transfer and negative pregnancy test to start another full cycle for most women.
How does a fresh IVF cycle work?
A fresh IVF cycle is when an IVF cycle is completed using eggs and embryos that were never frozen. After the eggs are retrieved, they are immediately fertilized by semen in the lab.
How often does IVF work on the first cycle?
Overall, for women starting IVF, 33% have a baby as a result of their first cycle, increasing to 54-77% by the eighth cycle.

Are FET more successful than fresh?
Many fertility specialists and treatment providers indicate that frozen embryo transfers provide a higher pregnancy success rate than using fresh embryos during assisted reproductive technology.
Why are fresh embryos more successful?
The eggs are fertilized with sperm in the laboratory, and the resulting embryo is grown and monitored closely. The main benefit of a fresh embryo transfer is that there is a shorter time to conception, since there is only a 5 day waiting period between egg retrieval and embryo transfer into the uterus.
