Endometrial receptivity test

A biopsy test claiming to personalise transfer timing.

Add-ons

Endometrial receptivity testing analyses gene expression in a lining biopsy to suggest a personalised window for transfer. Randomised evidence has not shown improved live birth rates in general use, and it adds cost and a delay cycle. Discuss it as an add-on with limited evidence.

Also known as: ERA test, receptivity array
