Egg Cryopreservation: A Modern Option for the Future of Motherhood
The technique of egg cryopreservation was developed to offer the possibility to women who are unable to achieve pregnancy in their most fertile years. Medical problems or social reasons, such as career path, are common reasons for postponing pregnancy. In these cases, egg cryopreservation is the ideal solution.
It is widely known that egg quality declines with age, while the endometrium remains functional even at older ages. Thus, freezing eggs at a younger age is the only way to increase the chances of successful fertilization and pregnancy after 40.
The procedure is simple, safe and effective. After ovarian stimulation, the eggs are collected, frozen and stored. In the future, the woman can thaw her eggs, fertilize them and transfer the embryos to the uterus to achieve pregnancy.
The younger the woman is at the time of the procedure, the higher the implantation success rate after embryo transfer.
