The optimal embryos on day 2 are those with 4 cells, while on day 3 are those with 8 cells. Having more or fewer cells, as we have seen throughout the article, assumes that the embryo is not of excellent quality.
In the case of having 6 cells, the embryo would be classified in category C, whether it is day 2 or day 3. In the case of having 8 cells, it will be necessary to assess how many there were on day 2. Thus, if it comes from an embryo with 4 cells on day 2, it will be of quality A, while if it had 6 cells it will be of category C. If it comes from an embryo with 4 cells on day 2, it will be of quality A, while if it had 6 cells it will be of category C.
