Increasing number of single women either choose or feel the need to delay childbearing due to professional or personal reasons. For years, the only efficient option available to them for fertility preservation was to freeze embryos after IVF using sperm from an anonymous or known donor. Embryos have been successfully frozen and thawed for three decades. The embryo?s ability to survive the freeze/thaw process depends on its quality, but in general, good-quality embryos survive the process well and are likely to implant.
