Egg Freezing in Miami

Fertility preservation, or egg cryopreservation (freezing), can offer solutions to a range of ethical, religious, and legal problems related to freezing embryos. With this technique, it is possible to maintain the fertility of women who suffer from pathologies that can compromise ovarian function, such as early ovarian failure, endometriosis, cysts, and pelvic infections. Egg cryopreservation can also facilitate the logistics of egg donation programs. 

Egg cryopreservation protocols are already part of our clinic’s routine as they offer excellent survival rates after thawing and good pregnancy rates, as more recent research has shown normal chromosomes and karyotypes after thawing. Using the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) technique,  excellent fertilization and implantation rates were obtained.

Another major advance in Reproductive Medicine is the option of cryopreserving ovarian tissue for women with the aim of auto-transplantation, culturing primordial follicles, or the use of xenotransplantation techniques to recover eggs with development capacity. This technique is particularly suitable for young cancer patients who wish to preserve their germ cells to avoid potential damage caused by radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Experimental studies on animals demonstrated that after freezing, thawing, and auto-transplantation of fragments of the ovarian cortex, ovulatory cycles could be reestablished as well as fertility. However, progress towards maturing frozen and thawed tissue follicles for in vitro fertilization is still progressing slowly.

What Is an Egg Freezing Consultation?

An egg freezing consultation is your opportunity to discuss fertility preservation options with a reproductive specialist. This initial meeting helps you understand the process, explore your personal fertility potential, and develop a tailored plan that aligns with your health history and future goals.

During this consultation, your reproductive endocrinologist will evaluate several factors to determine if egg freezing is appropriate for your situation. This assessment typically includes the following:

  • A detailed medical history review focusing on reproductive health
  • Discussion about your menstrual cycles and any previous fertility treatments
  • Comprehensive information about the egg freezing process and timeline
  • Preliminary fertility testing recommendations
  • Overview of potential costs and financing options
  • Questions and answers about your specific concerns

The consultation serves as the foundation for your fertility preservation journey, providing the information you need to make confident decisions about your reproductive future.

How to Prepare for Your Egg Freezing Consultation

Arriving prepared for your consultation ensures you get the most from this important appointment. Taking a few simple steps beforehand can help you feel confident and informed during the discussion.

The consultation is your opportunity to ask questions and express concerns, so come ready to engage in an open conversation about your reproductive goals. Many patients find it helpful to:

  • Make a list of questions about the procedure, success rates, and timeline
  • Gather information about your menstrual cycle history
  • Bring records of any previous fertility testing or treatments
  • Consider your timeline for family building
  • Research your insurance coverage for fertility services
  • Think about how many children you hope to have in the future

Being mentally prepared for this discussion allows you to fully participate in planning your fertility preservation journey.

With this technique, immature eggs are collected naturally and then matured in our laboratory. This approach offers several benefits worth discussing during your consultation:

  • Significantly reduced discomfort compared to traditional protocols
