On the day of embryo transfer, it is advisable to avoid strenuous activity. Following embryo transfer, it is very important to continue using progesterone. Pregnancy test will be performed with a blood test around 10-14 days after embryo transfer depending on the stage at which the embryo was transferred. Many specialists advise continuing progesterone for 8-10 weeks if the pregnancy test is positive. Using progesterone after positive pregnancy test will incur an additional cost since additional progesterone beyond pregnancy test is not covered by PBS.
