Eating before embryo transfer!
When IVF transfer day arrives, most women wonder – “Should I eat pineapple?”, “Should I wear lucky socks?”, “Should I go on complete bed rest?”
But very few people know that the most effective and scientific advice is –
👉 Eat Right Before Embryo Transfer! 🍲
🧬 IVF Nutrition Truth: Protein Is the Biggest Hero
Our eggs are made up mostly of protein and fat
. If the body is deficient in protein, cells become weak and energy levels drop.
This not only affects egg quality , but also makes the body less receptive to implantation.
📖 According to research published in the Fertility & Sterility Journal (2022)
– “Women who consume a high-protein diet before IVF are more likely to conceive.”
💡 How much protein should one consume?
You should consume approximately 1.2–1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight each day .
It’s best to get this from food, not just supplements.
Examples:
🥚 Egg 🍶 Yogurt 🍛 Pulses 🧀 Paneer 🌿 Tofu 🍚 Quinoa
🌼 What to eat before transfer?
Eating before embryo transfer helps keep your body stable and calm.
👉 A protein + carb balance keeps blood sugar stable
👉 It increases uterine blood flow, which helps with implantation
👉 Feeling full lowers the stress hormone cortisol, which improves IVF results
Example :
- Boiled egg + toast
- Yogurt + Berries
- Dalia + Milk
- Moong Dal Khichdi
💖 My Pre-Transfer Ritual
According to Dr. Shraddha Chakhayar, it’s important to keep both body and mind calm on the day of IVF.

Diet Before Embryo Transfer: Role in IVF Success
Eating Before Embryo Transfer: The Most Important Thing You Can Do for IVF Success!
On the day of the major IVF transfer, most women ask themselves, “Should I eat pineapple?” “Should I wear my lucky socks?” “Should I stay in bed all day?”
But a lot of people don’t know that the best and most scientifically sound advise is this: 🍳 Eat a good meal before your embryo transfer!
The truth about IVF nutrition is that protein is the real hero.
Mostly, your eggs are made up of protein and fat.
Your cells grow feeble and your energy levels diminish when you don’t eat enough protein.
This has an effect on both the quality of your eggs and how well your uterus can receive and support an embryo during transfer.
📖 The journal Fertility & Sterility (2022) says, “Women who ate a lot of protein before IVF had higher rates of pregnancy success.”
How Much Protein Do You Need?
Try to get between 1.2 and 1.5 grams of protein for every kilogram of body weight you have.
And don’t forget that eating real food is better than just taking supplements!
Some examples are eggs, yogurt, lentils, paneer, tofu, and quinoa.
What to Eat Before Your Transfer
Eating a balanced breakfast with a lot of protein before embryo transfer helps keep your body calm and stable.
👉 Protein and complex carbs help keep blood sugar levels steady. This increases blood flow to the uterus, which makes implantation more likely. A full stomach and a calm mind minimize stress hormones (like cortisol) that can make IVF less successful.
Suggestions for meals:
- Eggs boiled and toast
- Berries and yogurt
- Dahlia (porridge) and milk
Moong dal khichdi is a mild blend of lentils and rice.
💖 The Ritual Before the Transfer
Dr. Shradha Chakhaiyar says that being calm in both mind and body is very important on transfer day.

1️⃣ Have a healthy, balanced lunch that includes protein and carbs.
2. Spend 10 minutes doing deep breathing or a short meditation.
3. Don’t look through your phone or Google your symptoms; keep calm and present.
✨ This mix helps your body get into a “receptive state,” which can assist the embryo attach and flourish.
