Frozen embryo transfer technique
Frozen embryo transfer technique
There are two options for frozen embryo transfer, depending on the presence of female ovulation in the menstrual cycle.
-
Option 1: frozen embryo transfer in a fresh cycle (suitable for women with ovulatory cycles).
The follicle growth is monitored and after confirmation of the fact of ovulation, progesterone medications are prescribed (to support the second phase of the menstrual cycle). Further, the transfer of pre-thawed embryos is carried out on the 5th day after ovulation.
-
Option 2: frozen embryo transfer using hormone replacement therapy (suitable for women with a hormonal factor of infertility).
When choosing this option, a prolonged-acting GnRH is injected and after 14-16 days a pelvic ultrasound scan is performed (to monitor the thickness of the endometrium and confirm the absence of ovarian follicular cysts). Afterwards, estrogens are prescribed for 14 days with further ultrasound monitoring of the endometrium thickness. Finally, progesterone medications are prescribed for 7 days and frozen embryo transfer is performed.
