Egg Freezing
A precautionary step. A future-ready option.
Egg freezing (oocyte cryopreservation) is a way to preserve your fertility today—so you can make family decisions later with more confidence and less pressure. At Mitra Fertility and Beyond, we approach egg freezing as smart planning: calm, clear, and medically guided from start to storage.
- Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes

What is egg freezing?
Egg freezing is the process of collecting eggs from the ovaries, freezing them safely, and storing them for future use. When you’re ready, those eggs can be thawed, fertilized in the lab, and used to plan pregnancy through IVF/ICSI.
What it gives you:
More time, more flexibility, and a sense of control—without forcing rushed decisions today.
Stored with Care. Protected with Standards.
Fertility preservation can feel like a rushed decision—full of jargon, timelines, and pressure. At Mitra, we take a calmer, more honest path. One that begins with clarity, and ends with secure, high-standard storage you can trust.
Why Mitra Matters
Storage You Can Trust
Cryopreservation isn’t just freezing—it’s long-term protection. Mitra’s facility is designed for stable, controlled storage conditions, so your eggs, embryos, or sperm are preserved with the care they deserve—from day one to the day you’re ready.
Lab-to-Storage Protocols That Protect Quality
What happens between collection and storage matters. Mitra follows strict, standardized handling protocols so samples are protected during every step—collection, labeling, freezing, storage, and future use—without gaps or guesswork.
Traceability & Safety at Every Step
When you freeze something this important, confidence matters. Mitra uses clear identification and tracking systems to ensure sample traceability, secure access, and reliable documentation—so your preservation plan stays safe, organized, and stress-free.
Our goal is simple

Know more About Egg FReezing
Why people choose egg freezing
Egg freezing is often chosen from a precautionary, future-options perspective—especially when the right time for pregnancy isn’t the right time for your life.
Common reasons include:
You want to delay pregnancy for personal, career, or family reasons—without losing options
You’re not ready to decide now, but you want to protect your fertility window
You’re planning marriage later or don’t have the right circumstances yet
You want a future plan that feels calmer, not rushed
You want to reduce anxiety around “age pressure” and make decisions with clarity
At Mitra, we frame egg freezing as future planning, not fear planning.
When egg freezing makes the most sense
Egg freezing can be especially valuable when it’s done at the right time—because egg quality and quantity change with age.
Egg freezing is commonly considered when:
You want to preserve eggs while your fertility potential is stronger
You have a family history of early menopause (case-based)
You’re managing conditions like endometriosis or ovarian cysts and want a backup (case-based)
You’re planning treatment/surgery that could affect ovarian function (case-based)
You want a calm backup while you plan life and timelines
Mitra’s role: We help you decide whether egg freezing is truly worth it for your situation—based on your age, ovarian reserve indicators, and realistic outcomes.
“What’s right for you” comes first at Mitra
Egg freezing can be empowering—but it should never feel like pressure.
At Mitra, your plan begins with:
Clarity before any procedure — understanding your body, timeline, and options
A realistic outcome conversation — what egg freezing can and cannot promise
A plan built around your life — scheduling, comfort, and long-term intention
Long-term storage you can trust — secure protocols and documentation
Take the step that brings clarity to your journey.
Egg Freezing
Your egg freezing journey (step-by-step)
Egg freezing typically takes 2–3 weeks from start to retrieval, depending on your cycle and protocol.
- Find the right option for me
Step 01: Evaluation & planning
We review your cycle history and ovarian reserve indicators and map the best window to begin.
Step 02: Ovarian stimulation
You take fertility medications for a short duration to help multiple eggs mature safely (instead of the single egg your body releases naturally each month).
Step 03: Monitoring
A few scans and/or blood tests help track follicle growth and decide the right retrieval timing.
Step 04: Egg retrieval
A short, planned procedure where mature eggs are collected—typically done with comfort-focused sedation
Step 05: Freezing and storage
The collected mature eggs are frozen and stored securely with clear traceability and documentation.
Step 6: Your future-use roadmap
You leave with clarity on what happens later—how eggs are thawed, fertilized, and used when you’re ready.

Cryopreservatoin
What Mitra can freeze and store
We help you choose what to preserve based on your situation:
Egg freezing (Oocyte Cryopreservation)
Best when you want to preserve fertility before egg quality declines or before a medical treatment that may affect ovaries.
Embryo freezing (Embryo Cryopreservation)
Often chosen during IVF/ICSI cycles to preserve embryos for future transfer, planning a second child, or spacing attempts with less physical strain.
Sperm freezing (Semen Cryopreservation)
Useful when sperm availability may change (travel, surgery, medical treatment) or when you want to preserve a sample for future IVF/ICSI or IUI pathways.
When cryopreservation makes sense
Fertility preservation planning
You want to preserve eggs/embryos earlier for future family plans
You’re delaying pregnancy for personal, career, or timing reasons
You’re concerned about age-related egg quality changes
You want options for a second child later
Medical and treatment-related reasons
Before cancer treatments (chemotherapy/radiation) or major surgeries
Before ovarian cyst surgery, endometriosis surgery, or treatments that may affect ovarian reserve
Before vasectomy or medical treatment affecting sperm quality
If you have conditions that may impact fertility over time (case-based)
During IVF/ICSI
You’re planning a “freeze and transfer later” approach
You want to preserve embryos for future attempts
You’re spacing out transfers for health, recovery, or uterine readiness
You’re planning genetic testing and need embryo freezing as part of the workflow
When you need a calm backup
It preserves your fertility window while you focus on health, recovery, life changes, or emotional readiness.
It gives you breathing room to plan without pressure, knowing your next step is protected.
It keeps future treatment options open—so when you’re ready, you can move forward with confidence and clarity.
Take the step that brings clarity to your journey.

Questions you might be afraid to ask (but should).
Is egg freezing a guarantee of pregnancy later?
Egg freezing preserves options, not guarantees. Outcomes depend on age at freezing, number of eggs frozen, egg quality, and future uterine factors.
How many eggs should I freeze?
This depends on age and ovarian response. Mitra will guide realistic targets based on what’s medically achievable in your cycle(s).
Does egg freezing affect future fertility?
Egg freezing does not “use up” future eggs beyond what your body would naturally lose each month. The cycle recruits eggs that would otherwise not mature that month.
Is the egg retrieval painful?
It’s a short planned procedure. Most people report discomfort more than pain, and comfort-focused sedation is commonly used.
Can I freeze eggs if I have PCOS?
Yes, many patients with PCOS freeze eggs successfully. Mitra plans stimulation carefully to balance response and safety.
How long can eggs be stored?
Storage is based on consent, documentation, and applicable regulations. Mitra will clearly explain storage terms and renewals.
