For early cleavage embryos, frozen ones appear to have at least as good obstetric outcome, measured as preterm birth and low birthweight for children born after cryopreservation as compared with children born after fresh cycles. [9] Oocyte age, survival proportion, and number of transferred embryos are predictors of pregnancy outcome. [12]
Cryopreservation for embryos is used for embryo storage, e.g., when IVF has resulted in more embryos than is currently needed. One pregnancy and resulting healthy birth has been reported from an embryo stored for 27 years, after the successful pregnancy of an embryo from the same batch three years earlier. [39]
Oocyte cryopreservation is a procedure to preserve a woman's eggs . This technique is often used to delay pregnancy. When pregnancy is desired, the eggs can be thawed, fertilized, and transferred to the uterus as embryos. Several studies have shown that most infertility problems are due to germ cell deterioration related to aging. [1]
With the 8 couples with embryo cryopreservation, there was a 65% fertilisation rate. At least one good quality day 3 embryo was cryopreserved in 7/8 couples. This experiment shows that IVM of oocytes obtained ex vivo during the processing of ovarian cortex prior to cryopreservation is a promising solution for patients at risk for fertility loss ...
In 2003, after freeze-thawing, orthotopic autotransplantation of ovarian cortical tissue was done by laparoscopy and five months after reimplantation regular ovulatory cycles were reinitiated. Eleven months after re-implantation a viable intrauterine pregnancy was confirmed, which resulted in the delivery of a healthy baby.
The same study found that, of 65 patients referred to the program, 28% declined to undergo embryo, oocyte, or tissue cryopreservation. 9% were found not to be eligible for medical reasons. Of the remaining 41 patients, 85% chose to cryopreserve embryos, 10% chose to cryopreserve oocytes, and 5% chose to undergo ovarian tissue freezing. [9]
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President-elect Donald Trump cannot ignore a law requiring Chinese-based ByteDance to divest its popular short video app TikTok in the U.S. by early next year or face a ban ...
Transvaginal oocyte retrieval (TVOR), also referred to as oocyte retrieval (OCR), is a technique used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) in order to remove oocytes from an ovary, enabling fertilization outside the body. [1]
