Warning issued over egg freezing

Posted on 06:21 by Unknown
I think this is kind of interesting. First, from a GreenFertility point of view for pretty much everything, fresh is better than frozen!

And in this "other" context (i.e., not the high-tech big promises marketing lit of the IVF clinic), you see how the chances of this fancy technology working are actually rather dismal.

From the BBC:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mother and baby
Egg freezing should not be offered to women who want to put off having a family purely for lifestyle reasons, say experts.

The American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) warned the procedure was still experimental, and the chances of success poor.

It said it would be wrong to give women a false sense of hope. Instead they should be offered counselling...

Dr Marc Fritz, of the ASRM, said it would be wrong for women who have frozen their eggs to think they had ensured their future fertility.

He said: "Existing medical evidence simply does not justify that conclusion."

The ASRM estimates that the overall live birth rate from frozen eggs is as low as 2% per egg.

It warned the figures may be even lower for women over 35 - the age at which fertility begins to decline rapidly.

Dr Fritz said a 25-year-old woman freezing her eggs now would have more chance of achieving a pregnancy through IVF using her fresh eggs when she was 35.
