Egg Freezing
Egg Freezing - Oocyte Cryopreservation
Egg freezing allows women to preserve their own eggs at a time when they are young and healthy, so they have a greater chance of conceiving later.
- Safe and modern method
- The only way to preserve egg quality and quantity
- A suitable method also for women without a partner
We offer a complete service in the field of egg freezing including a detailed examination, hormonal stimulation, and careful monitoring throughout the entire process.
We are talking about preserving the fertility of young women who, for various social and health-related reasons, choose not to have children yet. It is a process of obtaining mature eggs from the ovaries, their freezing, and storage.
Egg freezing can also be undergone by a single woman who does not have a partner. The woman can then decide on her own with whom and when she wants to start a family.
The younger the woman, the better the overall chances. Egg freezing is generally recommended between the ages of 27 and 35, when egg quantity and quality are typically higher. It can also be considered at a later age, depending on the woman’s individual ovarian reserve, health and reproductive plans.
MEDICAL FREEZING - egg freezing for medical reasons
A visit to an assisted reproduction center and egg freezing for fertility preservation is recommended if a woman has one of the following diagnoses:
- Oncological diseases
- Endometriosis - removal of adhesions
- Premature ovarian failure
- Ovarian surgery - teratoma, endometrioma
⚠️ For oncological patients, egg freezing is covered by health insurance based on an oncologist's recommendation - up to the cost of one IVF cycle. These patients are prioritized when scheduling the procedure and are accepted on an expedited basis to preserve their fertility before the start of treatment.
You are 35 but look 27? Your eggs are still 35...
Lifestyle cannot stop the biological clock, even if you feel great and look young. The way to extend your fertile window is egg freezing and their storage for later.
Most common myths about fertility and egg freezing
Egg freezing does not use up the eggs you would otherwise need in the future. The eggs collected during stimulation come from the group of follicles recruited in that particular cycle — eggs that would otherwise naturally be lost.
❌ Egg freezing is only for women who do not have a partner.
Fertility preservation can be a suitable choice also for women in a relationship - for example, if they are not yet ready for a child, are waiting for a more stable life situation, or want to postpone parenthood for personal or health-related reasons. Fertility in women in a partnership declines just as quickly.
❌ Egg freezing is unnecessary if I am healthy and young.
A younger age is actually the ideal time for freezing - eggs are of higher quality and the chances of a successful pregnancy in the future are greater.
❌ Frozen eggs do not last long.
After retrieval, eggs are rapidly frozen using the vitrification method. They are stored at a temperature of approximately -196 degrees Celsius in liquid nitrogen, where metabolic processes completely cease. Under these conditions, eggs maintain their quality long-term - scientific data confirms successful pregnancies even after more than ten years of storage.
