EGG FREEZING

Nicosia IVF Centre


Embryo freezing is an option we recommend if you have good quality embryos after your transfer. With embryos that we freeze after IVF, egg donation, sperm donation and PGD procedures, we offer our mother and father candidates the chance for a second baby and sibling.

Embryo freezing is the freezing of embryos in a laboratory environment with a special process. Frozen embryos are stored in liquid nitrogen at -196 °C.

The low freezing temperature ensures that the embryos are stored for a long time without being damaged.

Your frozen embryos are kept in small tubes on which your name is written and specially prepared for you in our center.
