About Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)
Frozen embryo transfer places a thawed embryo, made in an earlier IVF cycle, into the womb. It is used after freeze-all cycles, for spare embryos or after genetic testing.
The womb lining is prepared with oestrogen and progesterone, or by following your natural cycle. On the planned day the embryo is thawed and placed in the womb with a thin catheter, usually under ultrasound guidance, in a short procedure that needs no anaesthetic. Progesterone support continues afterwards. Cycle type is chosen to suit your hormones and any history of irregular cycles.
Usually a good fit if
- Frozen embryos from a previous IVF cycle.
- A womb lining that can respond to hormones.
- Wish to avoid repeating egg collection.
- Previous failed fresh transfer or risk of ovarian hyperstimulation.
May need to wait if
- Uterine abnormalities or polyps needing treatment.
- Poor lining response not corrected.
- Medical conditions that make pregnancy unsafe.
- Infection or unresolved legal issues about embryos.
How to prepare
- Confirm the number and grade of frozen embryos and check storage and consent paperwork.
- Tell the team about medicines and conditions; any medicine change is on your doctor's instruction.
- Have an ultrasound and bloods to plan cycle timing, and treat any infection or womb problem.
- Plan your travel around the transfer date and a pregnancy test about two weeks later.
Questions to ask your surgeon
- Medicated or natural cycle, and why?
- How many embryos will be thawed and transferred?
- How are embryos thawed and checked before transfer?
- What progesterone support will I need and for how long?
- When is the pregnancy test and who monitors the early scans?
Red flags when comparing hospitals
- Several embryos are transferred without discussing twin risk.
- No ultrasound check of the lining.
- Embryo identification and tracking are unclear.
- No plan for early pregnancy support.
