Frozen Embryo Transfer

Frozen Embryo Transfer

Some couples will have embryos frozen during their IVF/ICSI treatment cycle, for future use. A Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) cycle involves thawing frozen embryos and transferring them back to the womb.

FET cycles are much simpler than fresh cycles, as ovulation induction, egg collection and fertilisation are not required.

Advances in embryo freezing

Success rates with frozen embryo transfer cycles are slightly lower than those with fresh embryo transfer cycles. However, advances in embryo freezing techniques have greatly improved embryo viability after thawing.

Over 90% of vitrified embryos will survive the freezing process and be suitable for transfer when warmed.

Please be aware that Merrion Fertility Clinic has a single embryo transfer policy – for more information click here.
