About Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)

Embryo Transfer Using Previously Frozen Embryos

Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) is a procedure in which embryos created during a previous IVF cycle are thawed and transferred into the uterus. These embryos are stored under controlled conditions and used in a later cycle.

FET allows embryo transfer without repeating the entire stimulation and egg retrieval process. The timing of transfer is planned based on the uterine lining and cycle preparation to support implantation.

✔ Uses previously frozen embryos
✔ No repeat egg retrieval required
✔ Transfer in a prepared cycle
✔ Requires uterine lining support
