Embryos that are not implanted in the clinic can be frozen for future use, donated to other couples, donated for research purposes, or discarded. The specific fate of these embryos is typically determined by the patients and the clinic's policies.

When the cell mass is fully implanted in the uterus it is called a?

When the cell mass is fully implanted in the uterus, it is called a blastocyst. This is an early stage of development in mammalian embryos, just before the embryo begins to form distinct structures.


When doctors freeze embryos how do they know when to thaw embryos so they can be implanted at the correct stage in the women's reproductive cycle?

Doctors typically time the thawing and implantation of frozen embryos based on the woman's menstrual cycle. This is usually done by tracking her natural hormones and performing ultrasounds to monitor the development of her uterine lining. Once the lining is at the appropriate stage for implantation, the embryos are thawed and transferred.


What could happen to these embryos if they were not used in such treatments?

If the embryos are not used in such treatments, they may be preserved indefinitely in a frozen state, donated for scientific research, or discarded according to the clinic's policies and the wishes of the individuals who created them.


Can an artificially implanted embryo grow inside a male?

No, an artificially implanted embryo cannot grow inside a male as the male body does not have the necessary biological structures, such as a uterus, needed for embryo implantation and growth. Embryos require a female reproductive system to develop and grow into a fetus.


What is the grading of embryos?

Embryos are typically graded based on their developmental stage, cell number, and overall quality. Grading systems can vary depending on the laboratory or clinic, but commonly include categories such as quality (e.g. good, fair, poor), stage of development, and cell symmetry. The grading helps to predict the viability and potential success of an embryo for implantation.

Are the olson twins futurnal?

They are not fraternal twins (two different fertilized eggs implanted), they are identical twins (one single fertilized egg which divide into two separate embryos)

What happens to the embryo upon reaching the uterus?

Embryo get implanted on the uterine wall.


Is it possible to have a baby after hysterectomy?

No it is not. You no longer have a uterus in which to carry the baby. Before having a hysterectomy you might want to consider freezing some embryos if you would like to have children. These embryos could be implanted in a surrogate mother and you would be able to have children that way.


How can science prevent implanted genes from being passed on to the next generation?

Only by not implanting the genes in the first place. Once implanted, the genes will be passed on to future generations. If the implanted genes corrects a medical defect and future generations don't suffer from the same defect, then implanting genes could be classed as a benefit to mankind.


What is the maximum number of kids you could have?

Eight, so far. Twelve!!!! Bit of cheating there, with artificially implanted embryos.


Is it ethical for more than three of those eggs to be implanted at the same time?

It depends on which county you have the transplant take place. US says no more than 3, but I just had IVF in Bahrain and had 5 embryos transferred. I am pregnant with twins! Yay!

Can you give birth to another species?

I suppose it's possible if the fertilized embryo was implanted in a human womb. But human immune systems can sometimes attack even human embryos... so the embryo could be killed off quite early. Interesting question.
