Egg Freezing (Social Freezing)

Egg freezing is a modern reproductive technology that allows women to preserve their fertility for future use. Mature oocytes are collected, vitrified, and stored for many years, giving the possibility of future motherhood when the time is right.

How the program works

We help women preserve their reproductive potential through a safe and controlled process of stimulation, retrieval, and cryopreservation.

1

1

Initial examination

Includes general and hormonal blood tests, pelvic ultrasound, breast ultrasound, and other examinations if necessary to assess health and ovarian reserve.

2

Ovarian stimulation

Instead of a single egg maturing in a natural cycle, controlled ovarian stimulation is performed to obtain multiple oocytes, maximizing the chances of future pregnancy.

Egg retrieval and freezing

Mature eggs are retrieved under anesthesia and vitrified (cryopreserved) in liquid nitrogen, where they can remain viable for an unlimited time.

The optimal age is up to 35, when egg quality and quantity are highest. However, in Slovakia, the procedure can be performed up to age 45 if the hormonal profile and ovarian reserve are satisfactory.

There is no universal number, but clinical practice suggests at least 15 mature oocytes. Another approach is to preserve the number of eggs approximately corresponding to the woman’s current age.

Vitrified eggs can be safely stored for many years without loss of quality. The storage time is not limited as long as proper laboratory conditions are maintained.

Frozen oocytes can only be used in IVF programs. They are thawed, fertilized with partner’s or donor sperm, and then embryos are transferred to the uterus.
