What are the Steps Involved in Oocyte Cryopreservation?
The process of oocyte cryopreservation involves several key steps:
Ovarian Stimulation: Hormonal medications are administered to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Egg Retrieval: The eggs are collected from the ovaries using a minor surgical procedure. Freezing: The retrieved eggs are frozen using either slow freezing or vitrification techniques. Storage: The frozen eggs are stored in liquid nitrogen tanks until they are needed.
