Understanding eSET, ART, and IVF

There are various advanced techniques and procedures designed to help individuals and couples achieve their dream of parenthood. Among these, eSET (elective single embryo transfer), ART (assisted reproductive technology), and IVF (in vitro fertilization) stand out as some of the most effective and widely used methods. In this blog, our fertility specialists at Reproductive Partners Fertility Clinic San Diego will provide an in-depth explanation of these techniques and their role in fertility treatment.

Elective single embryo transfer (eSET) is a procedure used during IVF treatment where only one high-quality embryo is transferred to the uterus, instead of multiple embryos. The goal of eSET is to reduce the risk of multiple pregnancies while still achieving a successful pregnancy outcome. Our fertility specialists carefully assess each patient’s individual circumstances to determine if eSET is the right option for them. By transferring a single embryo, we can minimize the potential risks associated with multiple pregnancies, such as preterm birth and low birth weight, while maximizing the chances of a healthy pregnancy.

Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is a broad term that encompasses various fertility treatments and procedures designed to assist individuals and couples in achieving pregnancy. ART techniques may include IVF, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), among others. At Reproductive Partners Fertility Clinic San Diego, our team of experienced fertility specialists utilizes ART to tailor treatment plans to meet the unique needs of each patient. By combining cutting-edge technology with personalized care, we strive to optimize the chances of success for every individual undergoing fertility treatment.

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a widely used fertility treatment that involves the fertilization of eggs with sperm outside the body in a laboratory setting. The resulting embryos are then transferred to the uterus, where they have the potential to implant and develop into a pregnancy. IVF may be recommended for individuals or couples facing various fertility challenges, including blocked fallopian tubes, male factor infertility, or unexplained infertility. Our fertility specialists guide patients through every step of the IVF process, from ovarian stimulation and egg retrieval to embryo transfer and beyond. With state-of-the-art facilities and a compassionate team, we are dedicated to helping our patients achieve their goals of building a family through IVF.
