Treatment
In a freeze-all, every suitable embryo is vitrified and transfer is deferred to a later cycle. It is used when OHSS risk is high, progesterone rises early, the lining is not ideal, or PGT results are pending. Deferring does not reduce success and often improves safety.
Also known as: elective freeze, freeze all, segmented cycle
