    I think my clinic claims to have a 90% successful thaw rate with 2/3 day embies. This seemed really high to me, and I don't know what to think of it, only that I thought I would add it into the mix here in this thread because of the reason they give for their high rate: the quality of their embryologists and how good those embryologists are at thawing embryos.

    So there seems to be a lot of factors in the differences between the mentioned thaw rates - quality of the embryo when it was frozen, how tough it is, quality of the egg, perhaps even quality of the sperm, whether it's a blastie or not and maybe you can add in the embryologist's skill at thawing now.

    I don't think there's an easy answer, BW. I think it comes down to individual couple's situations, rather than relying on an average from anywhere.

    Frustrating, isn't it? I hope you're hanging in there, bdub :hugs:

    ETA - Oooops I just realised that this thread was in the LTAC section after I posted! Sorry for barging in I hope no one minds
