Egg freezing is used for medical reasons, such as before cancer treatment, and for personal planning.
Freezing eggs does not guarantee a future pregnancy, and the chance depends heavily on age at freezing and the number of eggs stored. Egg freezing and storage in India are regulated under the ART (Regulation) Act 2021, and consent and storage terms are set out by your registered clinic or ART bank. Date-stamped 9 September 2026.
Key takeaways
- Egg freezing stores unfertilised eggs by vitrification for use later.
- Age at freezing and the number of eggs stored strongly affect the later chance of pregnancy.
- Storage, consent and use are regulated in India, and your clinic must be registered.
