In 2023, we asked a simple question: Should embryo glue be used routinely in IVF?

Since then, more studies have been published, larger analyses have been completed, and the evidence has matured. In this episode, we revisit embryo glue with fresh eyes — separating what hasn’t changed from what actually has.

We discuss why embryo glue is now clearly shown to be non-inferior to standard transfer media, what newer data suggests about small but possible benefits, and why those benefits are often misunderstood. Most importantly, we break down the difference between relative and absolute risk, using real-world examples to explain why a “10% improvement” doesn’t always mean what people think it does.

This episode is about evidence, expectations, and honest counseling — not hype. If you’ve ever wondered whether embryo glue is worth considering, who it may help, and who likely doesn’t need it, this conversation is for you.
