Embryo Freezing

What is Embryo Freezing?

Embryo freezing is used to store embryos created during IVF or ICSI for transfer at a later date.

Often several good quality embryos will be created. In these cases, it's normally best practice to freeze the remaining embryos because putting two embryos back in the womb increases your chance of having twins or triplets, which carries health risks. You can use your frozen embryos later on if your first cycle is unsuccessful or you want to try for another baby.

Your care team will explain consent, storage arrangements, and future transfer planning.
