UTM is an optional solution that is used exclusively at the time of embryo transfer. Before transfer, your embryo is gently placed into a small amount of this specialised medium, which is then transferred into the uterus along with the embryo.
How does UTM work?
UTM contains a naturally occurring substance called hyaluronan, which is already present in the uterus and plays a role in embryo implantation.This ingredient gives the medium a slightly thicker consistency, helping to:
• Support closer contact between the embryo and the uterine lining
• Assist the early process of embryo attachment
• Mimic the natural environment present at the time of implantation
For some patients, this may help improve the chances of implantation and pregnancy.
• Patients ≥35 years of age
• Patients with previous implantation failures
• Patients transferring cryopreserved embryos
• Patients with lower quality embryos
