"Freeze All" IVF Package
About
The "Freeze All" strategy of freezing all embryos obtained after the IVF procedure is gaining popularity worldwide as an alternative to the conventional transfer of fresh embryos. It involves the cryopreservation of all embryos and then transferring them in a subsequent menstrual cycle, without ovarian stimulation.
The transfer of thawed embryos can be done after 1-2 months in a natural menstrual cycle or with artificial hormonal replacement.
The success rate for the transfer of thawed embryos is the same, and in some situations, it may even be higher compared to the transfer of fresh embryos.
