Single Embryo Transfer

What Is

Single Embryo Transfer?

A single embryo transfer (SET) is when only one embryo created using in vitro fertilization (IVF) is transferred to a woman’s uterus to facilitate conception. Some health care professionals recommend SET over double embryo transfer (DET) because it reduces the risk of multiples.

Single embryo transfer is also called elective single embryo transfer (eSET)
