Egg freezing or oocyte cryopreservation is a form of assisted reproductive technology (ART). The process relies on hormonal stimulation for egg retrieval under the supervision of your fertility specialist. Egg freezing is a method of storing a woman’s unfertilized eggs to allow her to try to conceive at a later date, whether it is through natural conception or fertility treatments such as IVF and ICSI. By age 30, a woman’s fertility starts to decline, and after 35 the rate accelerates.
There are many reasons as to why you might opt for egg freezing:
In this part we will explain egg freezing step by step so that patients can have an overall image on what to expect.
Your ovarian reserve will be checked through blood tests and an ultrasound to estimate the number of eggs that can be collected from your ovaries for freezing. The blood tests will also check for infections such as HIV or hepatitis, testing positive for one of them usually means your eggs will be stored separately to prevent transmission to other samples.
Your fertility doctor will recommend a stimulation protocol to endure the maximum number of eggs that can be safely retrieved without putting you at the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome(OHSS).
Suitable medicine will be prescribed for you to start taking in advance. Then your daily injections will start typically from day 2 or 3 of your menstrual cycle. You need to be injected once or twice a day for 8 to 12 consecutive days.
The injections don’t go deep, the needles are very thin and they don’t really hurt a lot. Usually fertility centers will teach patients on how to self-inject or you might choose to enlist the help of someone else.
Frequent blood tests and ultrasounds will follow to watch how the follicles grow. A follicle is a small sac of fluid in the ovaries that contains a developing egg. Once your doctor deems the follicles have reached a certain size, you will receive a suitable trigger shot to help the eggs mature so they can be retrieved.
The patient will be under general anesthesia while the doctor uses a vaginal ultrasound to insert a needle through the vaginal wall and suck out the liquid in the follicles that contain the eggs.
Several factors affect the number of retrieved eggs with the most important ones being age and your ovarian reserve.
Within a few hours after the retrieval, the mature ones will be frozen through a process called vitrification. This relies on rapid freezing with liquid nitrogen to minimize the risk of ice crystals forming on the eggs aiming to increase survival rates.
In the 24 hours after egg retrieval it is common for patients to experience some discomfort like: cramping, bloating, constipation, and vaginal spotting which can be eased through the use of pain relievers or heating pads.
You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience: more severe abdominal pain, feel faint or lightheaded, or have heavy vaginal bleeding.
Egg freezing is considered a minor surgery and serious complications associated with the medications and egg retrieval process is rare. Side effects include:
