IVF Due Date Calculator
IVF dating is more precise than natural conception, because the embryo age at transfer is known exactly. Choose your transfer type and date.
IVF Due Date Calculator
Calculate your estimated due date based on your IVF transfer date
About this IVF due date calculator
- Shows your EDD, gestational age (weeks + days), and trimester.
- Works for fresh and frozen (FET) transfers.
- Requires just two inputs: transfer date + embryo age at transfer (day-3 or day-5).
How to use it
- Select Day-3 or Day-5 embryo.
- Enter your embryo transfer date.
- View your results instantly.
How the calculation works
- Pregnancy length by convention is ~280 days from LMP or 266 days from fertilization.
- For IVF we know embryo age at transfer, so we add:
- Day-3 transfer: +263 days to the transfer date (266 − 3).
- Day-5 transfer: +261 days to the transfer date (266 − 5).
- If you prefer an “LMP” for medical forms, use fertilization date − 14 days (your clinic can provide this).
Accuracy & limitations
- IVF dating is typically very precise; your clinic may confirm with an early ultrasound.
- The calculator assumes a singleton 40-week timeline for the EDD.
- Twins or more: many deliver earlier; your care plan may target earlier milestones.
- Donor eggs, ICSI, and PGT do not change the calculation.
- Individual health factors can still shift birth timing.
Key prenatal milestones (approximate)
- 6–10 weeks: First prenatal visit/early ultrasound (clinic dependent).
- 10–13 weeks: First-trimester screening/NIPT (if chosen).
- 18–22 weeks: Anatomy ultrasound.
- 24–28 weeks: Glucose screening.
- 36–37 weeks: Group B strep (GBS) test.
FAQs
- Does a frozen embryo change the math?
No—use the transfer date and the embryo’s age at transfer (day-3 or day-5). - Do donor eggs affect my due date?
No. Dating is based on embryo age and transfer date. - Why might my clinic adjust the date?
They may refine it after an early ultrasound (CRL measurement). - Can I enter an LMP instead?
IVF charts often use an “IVF LMP” = fertilization date − 14 days, but transfer-based dating is standard. - Twins—what should I expect?
EDD is shown at 40 weeks, but many twin pregnancies deliver earlier; follow your clinician’s plan.
