Video from the ReproductiveFacts channel, the patient education service of ASRM and SART. It is an external educational resource, not an Antega partnership.

Storage, consent and cost arrangements for frozen embryos in the United States are set by your clinic and your insurance plan, not by a national regulator equivalent to the HFEA.

Key takeaways

  • Frozen transfers are now routine.
  • Which approach is used depends on your cycle and your clinic's protocol.
  • Ask about storage costs and consent paperwork.
