It is usual to perform the first ultrasound scan in the 6th-7th week of pregnancy to confirm the pregnancy and to observe that the pregnancy is progressing correctly. Therefore, the first ultrasound test takes place about 3-5 weeks after the embryo transfer.
In this first ultrasound after IVF, the gestational sac, the yolk vesicle, the heartbeat and the embryonic bud will be observed.
