FET stands for Frozen Embryo Transfer. It involves transferring a cryopreserved embryo to the uterus in IVF treatment. These embryos can either be from a previous IVF cycle or donated by anonymous donor.

Donor Embryos in FET

  • Not to mention, Donor embryos can be used in FET through various methods such as full embryo donation. There are options where we can also use donated eggs or sperm.

Comparison with Fresh Embryo Transfer

  • Unquestionably, Cryopreserved embryos may be stronger and more likely to result in a healthy pregnancy.
  • Certain circumstances show slightly higher live birth rates with frozen embryos rather than Fresh Embryo transfer.
