FOT (Frozen Oocyte Thaw)

Overview

Egg freezing, also known as mature oocyte cryopreservation, is a technique used to preserve a woman's future fertility.

Unfertilized eggs retrieved from your ovaries are frozen and kept for later use. A frozen egg can be thawed in a lab, mixed with sperm, and put in your uterus (in vitro fertilization).

Based on your requirements and reproductive history, your doctor can help you understand how egg freezing works, the possible hazards, and if this technique of fertility preservation is suitable for you.
