IVF experts of the best IVF clinic in Ghaziabad – Gunjan IVF World share an interesting article on the negative signs after ET.
After a successful embryo transfer during an IVF treatment, most patients eagerly wait for early signs, which could be positive or negative. Whether the implantation is successful or not depends on a lot of aspects. It is important for patients to know that negative signs are not definitive and that symptoms vary from person to person. Read this article by IVF experts of the best IVF clinic in Delhi – Gunjan IVF World to know about the negative signs.
What could be the negative signs after embryo transfer?
There could be many common negative signs after embryo transfer but these may not always be concerning. Read this article to know what they could be.
No symptoms at all: “It is a common myth that if there are no symptoms, it means the transfer has failed. The reality is many women who get pregnant after IVF report of having no symptoms during the two-week wait period,” stated Dr. Gunjan Gupta, gynaecologist Ghaziabad and Founder & Medical Director of Gunjan IVF World – the best IVF clinic in Ghaziabad. Gunjan IVF World is also the three times award winner of North India’s best IVF clinic chain by ETHealthWorld. Gunjan IVF Clinic has four highly advanced IVF centres in Indirapuram, Janakpuri, Noida and Meerut.
Menstrual-like cramping: “Another symptom that might happen is menstrual- like cramping. During this, a woman might feel like a period is coming. This could mean a successful implantation or a failed cycle,” says Dr. Garima Sharma, Consultant & Centre In-Charge of a leading IVF clinic in Janakpuri – Gunjan IVF World.
Spotting or bleeding: Another negative sign could include spotting or bleeding. Light spotting could be a result of implantation success. In case of heavier bleeding, there could be a possibility that the cycle did not work or it could be just irritation from progesterone or the transfer itself.
Drop in basal body temperature: A sustained drop in the basal body temperature could be a negative sign but BBT isn’t always reliable after IVF because of hormones.
Feeling PMS-like symptoms: Some symptoms of mood swings, bloating, breast tenderness could also appear. They could be same as when your period is coming or early pregnancy. Medications like progesterone mimic pregnancy symptoms.
Negative home pregnancy test: Testing too early (especially before 9–11 days post-transfer) can give a false negative, especially with frozen embryo transfers.
What is not a reliable negative sign?
- Lack of implantation bleeding
- No breast tenderness
- No nausea
- Feeling ‘normal’
Many successful pregnancies occur without any symptoms in the early days.
When should you trust the results?
The beta hCG blood test that is usually done 9-14 days after the embryo transfer is the only source that indicates success or failure.
