ERA (Endometrial Receptivity Analysis)
Personalized embryo transfer for higher implantation success
At Aakash Fertility Centre, we offer ERA Testing, also called Endometrial Receptivity Analysis. It is an advanced test that helps find the best time for your uterus to receive an embryo. ERA testing helps find the best time for your uterus to take in an embryo. This timing can make it easier to get pregnant, especially if IVF didn’t work before
ERA (Endometrial Receptivity Analysis)
What Is ERA Testing?
Every woman’s uterus has its own special time when it’s most ready to receive an embryo. In regular IVF, embryo transfers are done based on average timing.
ERA testing looks deeper. It studies gene activity in the endometrial tissue to find your exact time for implantation. This helps doctors transfer the embryo at the perfect moment, giving you a better chance of success.
How It Works
- Endometrial Sampling – A small tissue sample is taken from your uterus during a mock (non-transfer) cycle.
- Genetic Analysis – The sample is checked for the activity of 248 genes linked to implantation using advanced NGS technology.
- Result Classification – Your uterus is labeled as either Receptive or Non-Receptive.
- Personalized Embryo Transfer (pET) – If it’s non-receptive, your doctor adjusts the timing of progesterone and plans the embryo transfer at your ideal moment.
This makes your IVF treatment more precise and tailored to your body’s timing.
Benefits of ERA Testing
- Better IVF Success – Boosts implantation and pregnancy chances by timing the transfer perfectly.
- Personalized Care – Finds your unique “window of implantation” instead of using average timings.
- Helps After IVF Failures – Especially helpful for women with good embryos but repeated failed transfers.
- Safe and Simple – Uses a gentle biopsy that doesn’t affect future fertility.
- Scientifically Proven – Developed by Igenomix and backed by global research studies
Who Can Benefit from ERA Testing ERA is recommended for:
- Women with repeated IVF or embryo transfer failures
- Patients with good embryo quality but unexplained implantation failure
- Women with thin or irregular endometrial development
- Couples opting for Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)
- Those seeking a highly personalized IVF approach
Clinical Outcomes
- Research shows that ERA-guided embryo transfer can raise pregnancy chances by up to 25%
- It works best for women who had failed IVF cycles before.
- At Aakash Fertility Centre, we use ERA testing in our IVF plans to help couples succeed after many failed tries elsewhere.
