IVF Frozen embryo transfer (FET) vs Fresh - Which is best?

Why are more and more IVF experts across the world no longer doing IVF fresh embryo transfers and instead performing FET - frozen embryo transfers only? Find out on today’s episode of InfertilityTV

In the USA and other countries. doctors are reducing the number of fresh transfers and increasing the number of frozen cycles.

We now have nationwide data on the chances for pregnancies and live births. That data shows the chance for having a baby is about 10% higher when we don’t put the embryos into the uterus immediately. Why does this happen?

Think about two different factors, how fast the embryo develops and how fast the uterine lining is maturing.

Are the success rate for frozen embryo transfer greater than a fresh transfer only because majority of the frozen transfers are usually done with PGS testing? Or would you recommend doing a frozen transfer with a patient that doesn’t believe in PGS testing?
