Question : Hi I had transferred six 3 day embryos two days ago and the next day after transfer had 102 fever. Does this mean that my body was rejecting the embryos? I am 43 and have 2.5 year. old with whom I had similar situation and my HCG was not doubling when we tested for 6 times. I feel like he just survived like a miracle.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

You stand good chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Welcome to healthcare magic.

1. I saw the embryos picture attached.

2. 3 out of 6 embryos transferred seem to be excellent.

3. The fever is not related to rejection of embryos. Embryo rejection does not lead to fever or any other symptoms.

4. You stand good chance of pregnancy. All the best.
