On the day 2, the embryos were translated from the old dish to a new dish with fresh media and cultured continuously. In study group, the embryo culture supernatant at the old dish were aspirated by using embryo transfer catheter (COOK-5000, Australia) and injected into the patient's uterine cavity.
