During in vitro fertilization (IVF) we often get more than enough good embryos to put back. These we can freeze and put back at a later time in a later cycle. The benefit of FER is that a woman avoids going through the whole treatment of stimulation and egg extraction again. The thawed embryo is inserted during a natural or lightly stimulated cycle in a simple, painless procedure that is over in a matter of minutes.
Frozen embryos can be stored for up to five years. The embryos can only be assigned to the couple they came from.
