Embryo Freezing (Embryo Cryopreservation)
Thakral Hospital offers Embryo Freezing as part of our advanced fertility services, giving couples the option to preserve embryos for future use. This approach is ideal for those planning for delayed parenthood or undergoing fertility treatments.
Embryo Freezing involves fertilizing retrieved eggs with sperm to create embryos, which are then frozen and stored for later use. This technique is a valuable option for individuals undergoing IVF who may want to preserve surplus embryos for future pregnancy attempts.
Secure your future family possibilities — Embryo Freezing keeps your parenthood dreams alive.
Who Can Benefit from Embryo Freezing?
Embryo Freezing can be the right option for many individuals and couples in various life situations, including:
- Undergoing IVF with surplus high-quality embryos
- Facing medical treatments like chemotherapy or surgery
- Wanting to delay pregnancy while preserving fertility
- Couples undergoing donor egg/sperm procedures
- Medical or personal reasons to avoid multiple stimulations
Our fertility team will work closely with you to assess whether embryo freezing fits your fertility goals and medical background.
Embryo Freezing Process at Thakral Hospital
Our embryo freezing protocol is carefully designed to ensure high survival and success rates:
Ovarian Stimulation and Egg Retrieval - The female partner undergoes stimulation to produce multiple eggs, which are then collected using a minimally invasive method.
Fertilization in the Lab - Collected eggs are fertilized with sperm using IVF or ICSI techniques to form embryos.
Embryo Culturing - Embryos are cultured in a lab environment for 3–5 days, allowing selection of high-quality embryos.
Vitrification (Freezing) - Selected embryos are flash-frozen using vitrification and securely stored in liquid nitrogen tanks.
Future Use - Frozen embryos can be thawed and transferred into the uterus in a future IVF cycle.
Each phase of the process is conducted with meticulous care to ensure safety, precision, and optimal outcomes.
Success Rates of Embryo Freezing
Success rates for embryo freezing depend on several factors including embryo quality, the woman’s age, and lab conditions:
High Survival After Thawing - With vitrification, more than 90% of embryos survive the thawing process.
Younger Age, Higher Success - Women under 35 have higher success rates due to better egg quality and embryo viability.
Quality Lab Environment Matters - Success depends significantly on the expertise of the lab and embryology team handling the process.
Our team and advanced lab systems work together to deliver excellent embryo survival and pregnancy outcomes.
