Question: what is the difference between a day 3 and day 5 embryo transfer?
Answer: Embryo Growth That single cell will divide every 12 to 24 hours. So, by the time an embryo has reached day 3 of growth, it should be between four and eight cells. Just two days later, on day 5, an embryo will consist of between 70 and 100 cells. At this stage of growth, the embryo is referred to as a blastocyst.
