Embryo freezing

❄️ Embryo Freezing (Cryopreservation)

Preserve Today, Plan Tomorrow

Embryo freezing is a process where fertilized embryos are preserved at sub-zero temperatures for future use. It’s a safe and effective way to extend fertility potential, delay pregnancy, or store extra embryos after an IVF cycle.

🧬 What is Embryo Freezing?

• After IVF, high-quality embryos that are not transferred in the fresh cycle are frozen using a method called vitrification

• These embryos can be thawed and transferred in a later cycle

• Frozen embryos maintain their quality and success rates remain high

✅ Who Should Consider Embryo Freezing?

• Couples with extra embryos after IVF

• Those planning genetic testing (PGT)

• Women at risk of OHSS (Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome)

• People delaying parenthood for personal or medical reasons

• In case of fertility preservation before cancer treatment

🔁 How It Works

1. IVF is performed and embryos are created

2. Embryos are grown to Day 5 or 6 (blastocyst stage)

3. The best embryos are carefully frozen using vitrification

4. They are stored in a liquid nitrogen tank at -196°C

5. Can be thawed and transferred in a future cycle as needed

💡 Benefits of Embryo Freezing

• Reduces need to repeat full IVF cycles

• Allows for flexible timing of pregnancy

• Gives multiple chances from one IVF cycle

• Useful for fertility preservation in medical treatments

• Enables safe Frozen Embryo Transfers (FET) with better uterine preparation

📅 How Long Can Embryos Stay Frozen?

• Embryos can be safely stored for many years

• Success rates remain consistent even after long-term storage

Embryo freezing gives you more than time – it gives you options.
Whether you’re preserving fertility or planning your family, frozen embryos offer a future full of possibilities.
