Embryo freezing, also known as embryo cryopreservation, is a process in which embryos that are produced through in vitro fertilization (IVF) are frozen and stored for later use. This is often done to increase the chances of a successful pregnancy in couples who are undergoing IVF or to preserve fertility for individuals who are about to undergo medical treatments that may affect their fertility.
Embryo freezing typically involves fertilizing eggs in a laboratory with sperm to create embryos. The embryos are then grown in a culture dish for several days until they reach a certain stage of development. At this point, some of the embryos may be transferred to the woman’s uterus for implantation, while the remaining embryos are frozen and stored in liquid nitrogen.
When the couple is ready to use the frozen embryos, they are thawed and transferred to the woman’s uterus using a thin catheter. The timing of the transfer is carefully planned to coincide with the woman’s menstrual cycle and maximize the chances of a successful pregnancy.
Embryo freezing can be an effective way for couples to increase their chances of having a successful pregnancy through IVF. It can also be used to preserve fertility for individuals who are about to undergo medical treatments, such as chemotherapy, that may affect their ability to conceive in the future. However, it is important to note that the success rates of frozen embryo transfers vary depending on a range of factors, including the quality of the embryos and the woman’s age at the time of the transfer. Additionally, the process of embryo freezing and storage can be costly and may not be covered by insurance.

Before your first appointment, one of our clinical care coordinators will call you to discuss your case and review what appointments to expect. The clinical care coordinator will make sure all appointments are arranged in a timely fashion. Each of our patients is unique and treated individually, and the schedule of doctors you see will be tailored specifically to your needs. The doctors will discuss your care options with you and answer any questions that you may have regarding your diagnosis and management.
We are dedicated to helping pregnant women and their families after a significant birth defect or genetic condition has been detected. Specialists from both obstetrics and pediatrics work together as a team to determine the best way to care for you and your unborn baby, both during and after your pregnancy.
Whenever possible, we create an integrated appointment plan, so that you can meet with the multiple subspecialists involved in your case. Some patients come here for a second opinion and go back to their obstetrician. Other patients transfer their care to Columbia as their delivery date approaches to make sure their baby immediately receives the necessary specialized pediatric care after birth.
