EMBRYO FREEZING

EMBRYO FREEZING

About Treatment

In general, if the number of healthy embryos obtained in IVF treatments is more than one, the embryos in suitable conditions can be frozen in order to be used later. The maximum number of embryos that can be transferred in expectant mothers is two or three. If there are more embryos, the most suitable ones are selected and frozen. Thanks to this procedure, the chance of pregnancy can be accessed again in the future.

In which cases is embryo freezing done?
  • If good quality embryos remain after embryo transfer
  • If bleeding occurs during treatment
  • Depending on the drugs used, all embryos can be frozen, especially in hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) developing in patients with polycystic ovaries.
  • In cases where the endometrium tissue surrounding the uterus does not thicken enough
  • In cases where intrauterine operation is required (endometrial polyp, myoma, adhesion)
  • Before cancer treatments that require chemotherapy or radiotherapy

    • Thawing and transferring frozen embryos provides couples with a chance of almost a fresh pregnancy at much less expense. Moreover, there is no need for long-term drug use, egg collection and microinjection processes.

    The purpose of preparing the patient for transfer for frozen embryos is to prepare the endometrium to reach sufficient thickness. For this, a natural cycle or a cycle prepared with drugs containing estrogen may be preferred. In the natural cycle, ovulation is followed and the endometrium is expected to thicken on its own. If the day of ovulation is determined and the embryo is frozen on which day, the transfer day is determined accordingly.

    Scientific studies have shown that frozen embryos give a healthy pregnancy chance even when thawed after a very long time, such as 10-15 years. There is no legal restriction on embryo storage in our country.

    Patients thoughts

    We met one year ago with Dr. MEK. I have seen too many doctors before. But years later, he became both a doctor and a father to us. I thank God first and then our doctor. Thanks to him and his team, I had 2 babies. I believe that he is the best doctor in Northern Cyprus.

    Thank you very much, my dear doctor Mehmet and his valuable team, for giving hope to my despair. You gave me this joy at the age of 53. Many expectant mothers like me should not lose hope. I wish that many families who are longing for a baby will meet you and be happy.

    It was obvious from the approach of the staff before the treatment that the result would be positive. The sensitivity and knowledge of all staff made me feel good and my motivation increased. I had twin babies. Thank you to everyone who contributed.
