FET with 2 and 4 cell embryos

[wannabeone]

Has anyone had success with degenerating embryos. Ones that started higher and degenerated to 4 and 2 cells. I am not overly hopeful, as the 6 others in the batch died completely, but have to think that the clinic had some hope if they transferred them. Thanks.

I did a FET with a 2 cell and 4 cell and was preggars from that cycle. I had a miscarriage though, and they were frozen as a one day and became a two day. Good luck, its worth a chance

By degenerated, you mean they had some cells that did not survive freeze-thaw? These were probably frozen day 3 embryos?

Then yes, there is hope.

Thanks, ghost. Yes, they were frozen at 7 or 8 cells and, once thawed, were down to 4 and 2. Just seems like the wrong direction. Do they sometimes get put inside the ut and say, "Oh let me start to grow again?".

Yes. In fact, they would probably do so in the culture media.
