Fresh versus frozen embryo transfer

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

The fresh embryo transfer has traditionally performed in vitro fertilization (IVF) since 1978. The first pregnancy following the transfer of a frozen-thawed human embryo was reported in 1983. Since then, the clinical value of embryo cryopreservation has steadily increased over the decades. Improvements in vitrification now make frozen embryo transfer a viable alternative to fresh embryo transfer. The freeze-all strategy is a topic that has recently gained attention from clinicians and embryologists. The aim of this chapter is to provide an overview of the main cryopreservation strategies and discuss whether frozen embryo transfer is beneficial for diminished ovarian reserve patients in improving the clinical outcomes of IVF/ICSI cycles.
