Why Consider Egg Freezing?
Fertility Changes Over Time
Egg quantity and quality generally decline with age. Freezing eggs earlier may preserve younger eggs for potential future use.
More Flexibility for Your Future
Egg freezing can give you more options if you’re not ready to pursue pregnancy now.
A Defined Treatment Process
An egg-freezing cycle typically takes a few weeks from initial testing through egg retrieval.
The Process

How egg freezing works

01

Initial
Testing

Your care begins with an evaluation of your fertility health, including testing such as AMH and ultrasound when appropriate.

02

Treatment
Plan

Your clinical team reviews your results and creates your egg-freezing treatment plan.

03

Ovarian
Stimulation

You’ll take fertility medications to encourage multiple eggs to mature while your care team monitors your response.

04

Egg
Retrieval

When your eggs are ready, a reproductive endocrinologist performs your egg retrieval.

05

Freezing and Storage

Mature eggs are frozen using vitrification and stored for potential future use.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I freeze my eggs?

There is no single right age for everyone. Because egg quantity and quality generally decline with age, some people choose to freeze eggs earlier to preserve younger eggs for possible future use.

Will egg freezing affect my future fertility?

Egg freezing does not use up eggs you would otherwise need later. During a treatment cycle, medications help mature multiple eggs that would otherwise naturally be lost during that cycle.

How long can my eggs be stored?

Frozen eggs can generally remain stored for many years. Your care team can explain storage policies and fees.

Do I have to use my frozen eggs later?

No. Freezing eggs gives you an option for the future, but you are not required to use them.

Do I need to stop birth control before egg freezing?

That depends on the type of birth control you use and your treatment plan. Your care team will give you specific instructions.

Doyle and Colleagues’ Results

Doyle and colleagues have reported the next largest data set to date, including live birth rates after warming 1,283 vitrified and subsequently warmed eggs between 2009 and 2015. This is one of the largest published data sets available. While not every embryo created from these frozen eggs was transferred, the authors estimated the live birth rates as if every viable blastocyst stage embryo was transferred. As a proxy for older patients who had fewer embryos, they used their success rates from their IVF outcomes – they had previously demonstrated that blastocyst stage embryos from frozen eggs had at least as high a pregnancy and live birth rate as blastocyst stage embryos from women of the same age using fresh, never frozen eggs.  Their published outcomes involved the below calculations:

  1. Calculate the number of live births from frozen eggs from women at various ages.
  2. They still had embryos (blastocysts) remaining from the frozen eggs that were not transferred and refrozen, so they estimated how many of those frozen blastocyst embryos would result in a live birth based on their experience with blastocyst stage embryos frozen from women of the same age (at the time the eggs were retrieved). This estimate allowed them to approximate the efficiency per egg.
  3. Since this number looked unrealistically high for women at age 41-42, they substituted the efficinecy of live birth per fresh oocyte at this age and applied this number to the eggs that survived freezing/warming.

This study lacked extensive data on eggs frozen from women who are older than 37 (only 96 eggs).  The 96 warmed eggs from women over age 37 yielded 5 babies. These numbers gave an unusually high efficiency for women over age 37 so the authors correctly adjusted their data to “predict” the efficiency using:

  1. Their survival rate for frozen eggs.
  2. The anticipated number of blastocysts that would develop from those eggs.
  3. Their live birth rates using blastocysts derived from fresh (non-frozen eggs) at each age group.

They then assumed a binomial “normal” distribution to yield the predicted probability per frozen oocyte at each age group. Our calculator uses the same assumption (a binomial distribution) to arrive at the probability of 1 or multiple children based on the number of eggs and the probability of a live birth per egg.

They arrived at the following estimates for live birth efficiency per egg:

Doyle et al 1,283 warmed eggs
<30 8.2%
<35 8.0%
35-37 7.3%
38-40 4.5%
41-42 2.5%

 

Cobo and Colleagues’ Results

Cobo and colleagues is the largest data set of published outcomes from frozen/warmed oocytes. This study simply reported on the live birth rate per warmed egg in women of each age group.  We entered these estimates into a binomial calculator to arrive at the chances of having 1 or multiple live births based on the number of eggs used in each age group.

Interesting additional information:  the majority of these eggs were not tested for chromosome number. This study further reports no difference in outcomes based on amount of time samples were frozen (up to five years).  90.4% of warmed eggs survived the thaw and 1.4% of warming cycles had no eggs survive. These data yielded the following outcomes (the number of eggs included is represented on the right column).

Cobo and colleagues estimated efficiency (1,513 warmed eggs) Number of eggs
