Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)

At NU Fertility, we understand how challenging the path to parenthood is. Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) offers a renewed opportunity to many couples. FET is an effective procedure with high success rates.

If you are looking forward to safeguarding your embryos / eggs for future pregnancy, frozen embryo transfer provides a guarantee to secure your parenthood dreams.

Success Rates of Frozen Embryo Transfer

Advancements in embryo vitrification and thawing protocols have led to better success rates of FET than fresh embryo transfers.

At NU Fertility, our expert embryologists and IVF specialists ensure optimal embryo survival, contributing to our high pregnancy rates.

FET Procedure: How is Frozen Embryo Transfer done?

At NU Fertility, we ensure every frozen embryo transfer is executed with precision and care.

Step-by-Step FET Process

  • Initial Evaluation
    • Blood tests and ultrasounds are conducted to check hormone levels and uterine health.
  • Uterine Preparation
    • Natural Cycle: Monitoring natural ovulation for the right time
    • HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) Cycle: Usage of Oestrogen and progesterone hormones when ovulation cycles are irregular.
  • Embryo Thawing
    • Stored embryos are thawed using advanced vitrification, with an 80% survival rate.
  • Embryo Transfer
    • A minimally invasive procedure is performed to place the embryo in the uterus.
  • Post-embryo transfer
    • You would be provided with progesterone support and lifestyle changes for successful implantation
  • Pregnancy Test
    • 10-14 days post-transfer, a blood test is conducted to confirm pregnancy.

On which day of the cycle is FET done?

Frozen embryo transfer date depends on the type of ovulation cycle:

  • Natural Cycle FET: This is for individuals with regular ovulation cycles. Ultrasound is used to track follicular growth and ovulation. Embryo transfer is done post-ovulation.
  • Down-regulated FET: This is for individuals with irregular or unpredictable cycles. Hormones are used to suppress natural ovulation cycles and prepare the uterus. Once the uterine lining is ready and optimal, embryos are transferred.

Who is Frozen Embryo Transfer recommended for?

Frozen embryo transfer is ideal for:

  • Individuals preserving embryos from a prior IVF cycle
  • Women whose uterine health does not support a fresh transfer
  • Couples opting for Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)
  • Cancer patients undergoing fertility preservation
  • Couples who plan for a later pregnancy
  • Individuals opting to choose egg freezing for the future

Frozen vs Fresh Embryo Transfer: Which is Better?

Factor Fresh Transfer Frozen Embryo Transfer
Ovarian Stimulation Yes No
Time Flexibility Limited High
Hormonal Control Unpredictable Well synchronised
Implantation Rates Good Better than Fresh Transfer
Cost Comparatively lower Comparatively higher

Frozen embryo transfers have high success rates and reduced risk of complications like OHSS (Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome)

Fertility Preservation: Egg and Embryo Freezing

Fertility preservation is life-changing for:

  • Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy
  • Individuals with declining semen count and quality
  • Donor semen quarantine protocols (3-6 months)

Post thaw

  • Around 50% of the sperm survives thawing with little decline in quality
  • Sperm may be used for IUI, IVF, or ICSI, depending on the viability.

Embryo Freezing:

  • Embryos are frozen using vitrification at -196 °C
  • The storage lasts up to 5 years, which can be renewed upon request

Blastocyst Embryo Transfer

A blastocyst is a day 5 embryo, which has high implantation potential due to its advanced development. Only good quality embryos can reach this stage. This makes them ideal for transfer.

  • The structure contains trophecoderm and inner call mass
  • This possesses a 30% potential when transferred into a receptive uterus
