What is frozen embryo transfer?
A Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) is a cycle in which the frozen embryos from an earlier fresh IVF cycle are Thawed and then moved back into the woman’s uterus.
General cycle:
The frozen embryo transfer will be performed in either stimulated or unstimulated cycles. The embryos are replaced when implantation is most likely during stimulated natural cycle.
Stimulated cycle:
You have to take the medication to go through the process of down regulation with a stimulated cycle. This prevents any eggs from being released and temporarily shuts down your ovaries. To prepare your womb for the embryo transfer you will have a scan on day two or three of your period and start taking Estrogen medication. To check the thickness of your endometrium a second ultrasound scan at day eight or nine will be performed. We can start the embryo thawing process and book your transfer once it has appropriate thickness.
IVF babies born from frozen embryos are as healthy as a fresh cycle. Freezing embryos allows couples to have some cycles of IVF with eggs collected during one round of treatment.
During IVF ‘fresh’ embryos are generally planted into a woman’s womb once an egg has been successfully fertilized with her partner’s sperm. Some women select to have one or more embryos frozen and then put away, for implantation at a later date.
The excess embryos can be frozen for the future use in IVF treatment, depending on their quality. If the first cycle was ineffective then that embryos can be stored for up to ten years for future treatment.
