Embryo Cryopreservation
Embryo cryopreservation is a process used in assisted reproductive technology, where embryos (fertilized eggs) are frozen for future use. This allows individuals or couples facing infertility to preserve embryos created during in vitro fertilization (IVF) for later implantation. The freezing process helps maintain the embryos' viability, enabling them to be thawed and transferred to the uterus when the conditions are right. This technique increases the chances of pregnancy and provides flexibility for those who may not be ready to conceive immediately or who wish to progress with treatment later.
