Fertility Treatment • Mysuru
Giving your preserved embryo the calmest, most receptive beginning.
Carefully synchronised uterine preparation and gentle transfer of a vitrified embryo for an optimal implantation environment.
What is it?
Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) involves thawing a previously frozen embryo — from an earlier IVF/ICSI cycle — and transferring it into the uterus during a specially prepared cycle.
Who may benefit?
- •Patients with remaining frozen embryos from a previous cycle
- •Those who freeze all embryos to reduce hyperstimulation risk
- •Patients undergoing PGT, where waiting for results requires freezing
- •Those planning a later or subsequent pregnancy attempt
When is it considered?
FET may be planned soon after an IVF cycle or after a gap of months to years, depending on your individual plan and preference.
How It Works
The treatment journey.
Endometrial Preparation
Medication or natural-cycle monitoring is used to prepare the uterine lining.
Thawing
The selected frozen embryo is thawed in the laboratory shortly before transfer.
Embryo Transfer
The thawed embryo is transferred into the uterus.
Pregnancy Testing
A blood test roughly two weeks later confirms the outcome.
Preparation
Preparation usually involves a course of medication and monitoring scans to time the uterine lining correctly.
During Treatment
The transfer procedure itself is quick and similar to a fresh embryo transfer.
Afterwards
Continued medication support and a scheduled pregnancy test follow the transfer.
Possible risks & limitations
Not every thawed embryo survives the process, and not every transfer results in pregnancy; your embryologist can explain survival and transfer plans specific to your embryos.
Frequently Asked Questions
Modern freezing techniques have high survival rates, though not every embryo survives — your clinic can share what to expect for your specific embryos.
