Egg Freezing Isn’t New, But “Egg Vitrification” Has Improved Efficacy and Success Rates Greatly
The development of this flash-freezing technique has revolutionized the world of fertility. Egg vitrification is a newer and revolutionary rapid “flash” freezing technique that minimizes the formation of damaging ice crystals, sealing the egg in a glass-like protection.

THE EGG FREEZING PROCESS
After you’ve completed prior to treatment to assess your fertility health, Birth control pills may be used to help regulate your cycle.
Ovarian Stimulation
Daily hormone injections (for 10-14 days) and monitoring appointments to evaluate your response to medications and check hormone levels.

AGE & EGGS
OVARIAN RESERVE
Woman are born with a finite number of eggs, due to mature and be released over their lifetime. We refer to the total egg supply as your “Ovarian Reserve.”
NUMBER OF EGGS
You are born with 1-2 million eggs. The population declines at a higher rate as you age. By the age of 30, the total sum of eggs can drop by 90 percent (or more). Although these are generalities, no two women are alike; you may have more or less eggs than another woman of the same age.
EGG QUALITY: CHANCE OF PREGNANCY
It’s quantity of eggs, but it’s also about quality. Egg quality rapidly declines after the age of 35, leading to an increased risk of fertility and chromosomal issues. We encourage you to freeze as soon as possible.
