What is embryo freezing?

Embryo freezing consists of preserving embryos (eggs already fertilized with sperm) through vitrification at ultra-low temperatures (-196°C) in liquid nitrogen using specialized cryoprotectors. The process includes embryonic quality evaluation, preparation with protective substances, instant controlled freezing, and storage in specialized tanks for future use.

What are the benefits of freezing embryos vs eggs?

The embryos have already passed successful fertilization, they allow for pre-implantation genetic study, and couples can plan families together.

How long can embryos be frozen?

Embryos can remain frozen indefinitely, without further deterioration in quality. Viability remains constant as long as they are stored at -196°C.

Does freezing the embryo have any repercussions on the baby at birth?

No, it has no negative impact on babies when they are born. Studies on this are reassuring.

How many embryos do I need to freeze to secure a baby?

It depends on embryonic quality and age. With good quality embryos <35 years old, 2-3 blastocysts may be sufficient. At >38 years of age or reduced quality, 4-6 embryos may be needed.

What if I never use one or more embryos?

They can be donated to other couples or for research purposes; either way, it's completely up to you and your partner to decide.

Your reproductive plan starts here

From the initial evaluation to the safe storage of your embryos, each stage is designed to maximize your opportunities to start a family at a time of your choosing.

Let's start your journey!

STEP 1

Comprehensive evaluation of the couple

We perform a complete evaluation of female and male fertility. We determine the optimal stimulation and fertilization protocol according to the individual characteristics of each couple.

STEP 2

Specialized IVF cycle

Personalized ovarian stimulation for 10-15 days, monitoring using ultrasound and hormonal analysis, follicular puncture under sedation, and in vitro fertilization or ICSI according to sperm quality to create viable embryos.

STEP 3

Embryo culture

Embryos are grown in incubators that are monitored without disturbing their development. We evaluate daily progression to blastocyst status (day 5-6) to identify embryos with greater implantation potential.

STEP 4

Vitrification and safe storage

The best embryos are vitrified and stored in liquid nitrogen tanks at -196°C with monitoring systems.

STEP 5

Planning for future transfers

When they decide to use their embryos, we coordinate endometrial preparation, the optimal time for the transfer, specialized monitoring of the pregnancy and preservation of additional embryos for future siblings if they wish.

What do we offer you?

Embryology Laboratory

We have incubators where their development is monitored, we keep them monitored and we have cultivation protocols that optimize their development.

All-inclusive experience

From initial evaluation to future transfer, we coordinate personalized ovarian stimulation, IVF/ICSI procedures, specialized embryo culture, genetic analysis if required, freezing and planning for future frozen embryo transfers.

Cryobiology Laboratory

The embryos go through the process of controlled cryopreservation, where we use liquid nitrogen tanks that preserve the samples at -196 degrees, for an indefinite period of time.

Preimplantation genetic analysis

We offer pre-implantation genetic analysis (PGT-A) to detect chromosomal aneuploidies, PGT-M for specific monogenic diseases, and PGT-SR for chromosomal rearrangements. This improves implantation rates and reduces the risk of abortion.
