Nicosia, Cyprus, 6th Nov 2026 – Cyprus IVF Centre has shared patient information explaining why two embryos that receive the same grade do not necessarily have the same potential.
Embryo grading is based on visible characteristics, including cell development and morphology. It provides valuable information about embryo quality during IVF treatment.
Embryo grading assesses an embryo’s appearance and development; it does not determine its chromosomal status. Genetic testing, where clinically indicated, evaluates a different aspect of the embryo and likewise cannot guarantee implantation or treatment success.
However, grading cannot fully predict an embryo’s developmental potential or implantation outcome. Even embryos with the same grade may behave differently, as factors beyond their appearance can influence development.
At Cyprus IVF Centre, the embryology team considers embryo grading alongside other relevant developmental and clinical information when assessing embryos for treatment.
Embryo grading supports the assessment of embryos. It does not guarantee implantation or treatment success.
“Two embryos can receive the same grade and still develop differently. Grading gives our embryology team valuable information, which we consider alongside other developmental and clinical information when assessing embryos. Embryo grading is an important part of the picture, but never the whole picture.”
— Ümit İnak, Director, Cyprus IVF Centre
Patients considering treatment are welcome to ask the team how their embryos will be assessed and what grading means for their own treatment. More information is available at:
