Egg Freezing in Delhi – Preserve Your Fertility with Confidence

For many women today, the timeline for starting a family doesn’t always align with their biological clock. Career goals, education, health issues, or personal choices may lead to delayed motherhood. Fortunately, egg freezing—a breakthrough in reproductive medicine—empowers women to preserve their fertility and plan pregnancy on their terms.

At Indira IVF Centre, West Patel Nagar, Dr. Nishtha Handa, fertility specialist and trained reproductive medicine expert, offers advanced and compassionate egg freezing services. With modern technology and expert care, you can take control of your future fertility—without the pressure of time.

What Is Egg Freezing?

Egg freezing, or oocyte cryopreservation, is a process where a woman’s mature eggs are retrieved from her ovaries, frozen using a fast-cooling technique called vitrification, and stored in a cryogenic facility. These eggs can be thawed, fertilised, and implanted later when the woman is ready to conceive.

Unlike embryo freezing (where the egg is fertilised before storage), egg freezing stores unfertilised eggs, making it a great option for single women or those unsure of a partner right now.

Who Should Consider Egg Freezing?

Egg freezing is ideal for women who want to delay childbearing but still want the chance to have biological children later. It is especially beneficial for:

● Women in their late 20s to mid-30s who want to focus on career or education

● Those diagnosed with PCOS, endometriosis, or low AMH

● Women undergoing chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery that may harm ovaries

● Single women who want to preserve options for future motherhood

● Women with a family history of early menopause.

The Egg Freezing Process – Step by Step

1. Initial Consultation & Tests

Your journey begins with a consultation with Dr. Handa. You’ll undergo fertility tests including AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone), ultrasound for antral follicle count, and other hormone tests to assess ovarian reserve.

2. Ovarian Stimulation

Over 10–12 days, you’ll receive daily hormonal injections to stimulate multiple egg production. Dr. Handa will closely monitor your progress via ultrasound and blood work.

3. Egg Retrieval

Once the eggs are mature, they are collected in a short, 15–20 minute procedure under mild sedation. You’ll go home the same day with minimal downtime.

4. Vitrification & Storage

The retrieved eggs are frozen using vitrification and stored in a cryogenic tank at -196°C. These eggs can remain viable for 10–15 years or longer.

When you're ready for pregnancy, the frozen eggs are thawed, fertilised with sperm, and the resulting embryo is implanted via IVF.

📊 Success Rates of Egg Freezing

Success rates depend on:

● Your age at the time of freezing (younger eggs = better outcomes)

● The number of eggs retrieved and frozen

● The quality of fertilisation and embryo development during IVF

Studies show that women who freeze eggs before 35 have the highest chance of success. At Indira IVF, Dr. Handa ensures proper egg quality assessment and precision freezing techniques to maximise future fertility.

Common Myths Debunked

Myth 1: Egg freezing is only for older women.
 ✔️ False. Younger women actually benefit more as their egg quality is higher.

Myth 2: The process is painful.
 ✔️ Not true. The injections cause mild discomfort, and egg retrieval is done under sedation.

Myth 3: Frozen eggs don’t work.
 ✔️ With vitrification, survival rates of thawed eggs are over 90% in expert labs like Indira IVF.
