What is Vitrification?

Vitrification is a rapid freezing process that prevents the formation of ice crystals, which can damage the embryo. This method has significantly improved survival rates, with success rates often exceeding 95% for embryos and blastocysts.

The Vitrification Process

The process involves placing the embryos in a series of solutions that remove water and replace it with a cryoprotectant, followed by rapid cooling in liquid nitrogen. This rapid freezing ensures that the embryos remain intact and viable for future use.

Advantages of Vitrification

Vitrification is preferred for its high success rates and the flexibility it provides in the IVF process. It allows for better planning and timing of embryo transfers, and it has become the method of choice in many fertility clinics due to its effectiveness.
