Your Egg Thawing Party: What Happens When it's Time for the Big Unfreeze?

Dec 29, 2023

Egg freezing is IVF without the F. You go through a standard cycle of In Vitro Fertilization in which you take hormone shots that stimulate the growth of eggs. A doctor like me then extracts your eggs through a simple surgical procedure, and I work with an embryologist to preserve your eggs in liquid nitrogen until you’re ready to use them.

So the big question is what happens now that you’re ready to use your eggs? In other words, what are the steps towards fertilization (or as I like to say, what the F?)

Step 1. Locate Your Eggs
Step 2: Decide if you want to unfreeze all your eggs.
Step 3. Complete Your Preconception Testing (follow the TUSHY Method)
Step 4: Complete Your Infectious Disease Labs
Step 5: Implantation Testing
Step 6: Make Embryos (and decide if you want to do genetic testing on your embryos)
Step 7: Decide Whether You Want to Transfer Fresh or Frozen Embryos
