Introduction

The Future of Fertility Preservation

At Creator’s IVF Nepal, we offer vitrification, a cutting-edge method for preserving oocytes (eggs) and embryos, ensuring their viability for future use. This modern technique provides enhanced protection against damage during freezing, making it a superior option compared to traditional freezing methods. Whether you’re looking to preserve your fertility or store excess embryos from a fresh cycle, vitrification offers long-term flexibility and peace of mind.

What is Vitrification?

Fast-Freezing Technology for Fertility Preservation

Vitrification is an advanced, ultra-rapid freezing process that solidifies oocytes or embryos without the formation of damaging ice crystals. Traditional freezing methods often pose risks due to ice formation, but vitrification eliminates this issue, ensuring higher survival rates when thawed. This technology is now considered the gold standard in fertility preservation, offering patients reliable options for future family planning.

Why Choose Vitrification?

Extended Preservation:

Vitrification allows oocytes and embryos to be safely stored for many years without compromising their quality, providing patients with flexibility in planning their future fertility journey.

Flexibility:

After a fresh IVF cycle, vitrification offers the option to freeze any excess embryos, allowing them to be used in future fertility treatments without the need for another full IVF cycle.

Fertility Preservation:

Vitrification is an ideal choice for individuals who wish to delay childbearing, such as women undergoing medical treatments that may affect fertility, or those simply wanting to preserve their fertility for future family planning.

Oocyte Vitrification

Preparation

Before vitrification, oocytes are carefully prepared and placed in a protective solution. This solution, known as a cryoprotectant, protects the cells from damage during the freezing process.

Vitrification Procedure

The oocytes are cooled at an incredibly fast rate, turning them into a glass-like state without the formation of ice crystals. This rapid freezing process ensures that the oocytes remain intact and viable when thawed for future use.

Embryo Vitrification

Embryo Selection

Before vitrification, embryos are carefully assessed to ensure their quality. Only healthy and viable embryos are selected for freezing, maximizing your chances of success in future fertility treatments.

Storage

Vitrified oocytes and embryos are stored in cryogenic tanks at ultra-low temperatures, where they remain safely preserved for years. Our state-of-the-art storage facilities are closely monitored, ensuring the highest standards of safety and security.

Who Should Consider Vitrification?

Eligibility for Oocyte & Embryo Preservation

Patients with Excess Embryos

Vitrification is ideal for women who want to preserve their fertility due to personal, professional, or medical reasons, such as those undergoing treatments like chemotherapy or radiation that could impact future fertility.

Effectiveness

Vitrification has been shown to have high success rates, with oocytes and embryos maintaining excellent viability when thawed. The survival rate of vitrified embryos is comparable to fresh embryos, making this a highly effective method for future fertility treatments.

Long-Term Viability

Research demonstrates that vitrified oocytes and embryos can remain viable for many years, allowing patients the confidence and flexibility to use them when they are ready.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

How long can oocytes and embryos be stored through vitrification?
Oocytes and embryos can be safely stored for many years, often over a decade or more, without losing their quality. Current research indicates no significant difference in the viability of embryos or oocytes stored long-term compared to those stored for shorter periods. The decision of how long to store is typically a personal choice, but vitrification ensures that fertility options remain available for an extended time.
No, vitrification is specifically designed to protect the quality of oocytes and embryos. Traditional slow-freezing methods can cause ice crystals to form, damaging the cells. However, vitrification rapidly freezes the cells, turning them into a glass-like state, which preserves their structure and quality. Studies show that the survival rate of vitrified oocytes and embryos is similar to fresh ones, meaning that quality is maintained throughout the process.
Vitrification is a suitable option for a wide range of individuals. Women looking to preserve their fertility due to medical treatments, such as chemotherapy, which may impact future fertility, often consider vitrification. It’s also ideal for women who wish to delay childbearing for personal or professional reasons. Additionally, patients undergoing IVF with excess embryos can use vitrification to store them for future cycles, eliminating the need for additional IVF rounds.
How is vitrification different from traditional freezing?
Vitrification differs from traditional freezing in both speed and effectiveness. Traditional freezing methods involve a slow process, which can lead to the formation of ice crystals that may damage cells. Vitrification, on the other hand, is an ultra-rapid freezing technique that prevents the formation of these crystals. As a result, the survival rates of oocytes and embryos are significantly higher with vitrification, making it a more advanced and reliable option for fertility preservation.
Yes, vitrification is a widely accepted and safe method for preserving oocytes and embryos. It has been used successfully for many years in fertility clinics around the world, with excellent outcomes in both pregnancy and live birth rates. The process involves stringent safety protocols, including the use of cryoprotectants to shield cells from damage during freezing. Additionally, storage facilities for vitrified cells are closely monitored, ensuring optimal conditions for long-term preservation.
