Can a cough affect embryo implantation?

Coughing does not affect embryo implantation or compromise IVF success. The embryo is securely cushioned inside the uterus and has already burrowed into the uterine lining. Multiple fertility experts confirm that coughing is a natural physiological response that poses no risk to implantation. However, if a persistent cough causes discomfort, patients should consult their doctor.
