Embryos can be either "fresh" from fertilized egg cells of the same menstrual cycle, or "frozen", that is they have been generated in a preceding cycle and undergone embryo cryopreservation, and are thawed just prior to the transfer, which is then termed "frozen embryo transfer" (FET).
In current state of the art, early embryos having undergone cryopreservation implant at the same rate as equivalent fresh counterparts. [2] The outcome from using cryopreserved embryos has uniformly been positive with no increase in birth defects or development abnormalities, [3] [8] also between fresh versus frozen eggs used for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). [9]
If an embryo transfer has occurred and pregnancy results, the symptoms may persist for several weeks. Doctors reduce the likelihood of OHSS occurring by decreasing the doses of gonadotropins (FSH) administered, using a GnRH agonist trigger (instead of an hCG trigger), and freezing all embryos for transfer rather than conducting a fresh embryo ...
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 ]

The Alabama Supreme Court has ruled that frozen embryos created and stored for in vitro fertilization (IVF) are children under a state law allowing parents to sue for wrongful death of their minor ...
Natural Cycle In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technique designed to closely mimic a woman's natural menstrual cycle. In traditional IVF, a woman's ovaries are stimulated with fertility medications to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved and fertilized outside the body.
