Laser Assisted Hatching (LAH) is an advanced laboratory technique used during the IVF process to improve the chances of embryo implantation. In this procedure, a highly precise laser is used to create a tiny opening in the outer shell of the embryo, known as the zona pellucida. This helps the embryo “hatch” more easily and attach to the lining of the uterus, which is a crucial step for a successful pregnancy. Laser Assisted Hatching is often recommended for couples who have experienced previous IVF failures, women of advanced maternal age, or cases where the embryo’s outer shell appears thicker than normal. The procedure is safe, quick, and performed by skilled embryologists under a microscope, increasing the likelihood of successful implantation and pregnancy.
