    Apr 6 2026
    In this episode, Prof Chapman addresses a challenging case of repeated frozen embryo transfer (FET) failures and explores what truly matters before trying again. He discusses why immune therapies like steroids and Clexane may not be as effective as commonly believed, and highlights the importance of embryo quality—particularly genetic testing to rule out aneuploidy. Prof Chapman also shares emerging insights on progesterone optimization before transfer, the role of ultrasound-guided embryo placement, and why choosing a highly qualified fertility specialist (CREI-certified) can make a critical difference in outcomes.
