Cryo-Embryo Transfer at the Heуios Surgery and Rehabilitation Center

Cryo-embryo transfer is an important procedure in assisted reproductive technology, involving the introduction of frozen embryos into the woman’s uterus after a previous cycle of in vitro fertilization (IVF). This method allows the use of embryos that were preserved during cryopreservation for future transfer, providing women who have already undergone treatment with another chance to conceive without the need for a full IVF cycle again.

How the Cryo-Embryo Transfer Procedure Works:

Preparation for transfer — Before transferring the cryo-embryos, the doctor prescribes hormonal therapy to prepare the uterine lining for embryo implantation. This may include the use of hormonal medications to stimulate the growth of the endometrium.
Embryo Thawing — The embryos stored in the cryobank are carefully thawed in the laboratory using special techniques to preserve their viability.
Embryo Transfer — During the procedure, the doctor inserts one or more embryos into the woman’s uterus using a special catheter. The procedure is painless and minimally invasive, performed without anesthesia.
Post-Transfer Period — After the embryo transfer, the woman is prescribed a course of medications to support the pregnancy. A pregnancy test is performed after a few weeks to determine the result.

Benefits of Cryo-Embryo Transfer:

Time and resource savings — Cryo-embryo transfer allows for the use of embryos obtained earlier, saving time and money on additional IVF cycles.
Ability to choose the best embryos — After a previous cycle, the most viable embryos can be selected for transfer.
Low level of invasiveness — The transfer procedure is minimally invasive and painless.
Flexibility and convenience — Thanks to the preservation of embryos for the future, women can choose the optimal time for transfer based on their schedule and health.

Who is Cryo-Embryo Transfer Suitable For?

Women who have already undergone an IVF cycle and have frozen embryos in a cryobank.
Couples who want to make another attempt using embryo transfer without the need for ovarian stimulation.
Patients for whom the most viable embryo was selected for transfer after a previous cycle.
