      Hi Blossom
      My research isn’t directly involved in IVF so i’m not up to date with all the latest advancements. What i do know is that one of the hot topics at the moment is debating the best number of embryos to put back per cycle – here in the UK we put back one embryo per cycle to minimise the risk of multiple births. However in other countries they put back more to maximise the chances of one implanting – however you then stand the risk of having twins, triplets or even more…!!! What do you think is the best route to take? (ps. there is no right answer!!)
