Improving Success Rates With Frozen Eggs
3 months ago
I read that sometimes frozen eggs may not fertilize or implant successfully. How common is this, and what factors improve the chances of pregnancy using frozen eggs? Are there additional precautions doctors take to maximize success?

Not all frozen eggs fertilize or implant successfully, but most mature eggs do, especially when frozen at a younger age. Factors improving success include high egg quality, optimal endometrial preparation, and skilled embryology techniques.
Doctors often recommend freezing a higher number of eggs to account for potential loss during thawing and fertilization. Careful monitoring, hormone support, and embryo culture methods are used to maximize the chance of pregnancy.
Patients are counseled to have realistic expectations and understand that multiple embryos may be needed for success.
