Laser Assisted Hatching (LAH) in Chennai
A precise laser thins the embryo’s outer shell (zona pellucida) to help it “hatch” and implant in the womb.
Overview
Laser Assisted Hatching (LAH) in Chennai
LAH is an advanced technique used when the zona pellucida, the outer covering of the egg/embryo, is thicker than usual. Excessive thickening is believed by many scientists to reduce the chance of implantation, which lowers the chance of pregnancy.
Using a precise laser, the zona is thinned at one spot to ease hatching of the embryo, thereby improving implantation and pregnancy rates in selected patients.
