1	oocyte denudation	22 January 2010		0
	hey!! I am currently having problems in oocyte denudation. I usually rely on chemical (hyaluronidase) and mechanical (moving from large stripper tip diameter to smaller one); but sometimes after moving the oocytes from hyaluronidase in order to complete the mechanical mechanism, they stick to each other and the cumulus become very hard. So they can't be aspirated with a stripper and i rely on syringes tips to release the eggs. How can i use syringes without touching the eggs? is there any specific technique? because sometimes the eggs become dead. ingred [ Reply here ]

Re: Retained embryos
Dear Alok,

Do you do U/S guided ET or a blind ET ? Is the person performing ET the same ? Is it that the embryos are retained at first attempt and then they go smoothly at next try ? Have you changed anything at your end recently such as - catheter, loading etc ? Anything else that is changed ?

I think you might have addressed all such things. Plz detail.
