When you begin your egg freezing cycle, you will be given a prescription for hormone injections. In a typical menstrual cycle, your body typically releases one egg, because humans are meant to carry one child at a time. The hormone injections will cause your ovaries to produce multiple eggs in a single menstrual cycle, instead of just one. To be sure that the medications are correct for your body, you’ll have 3-5 monitoring sessions in our Midtown East office. For those who are traveling, monitoring can be done at a number of outside clinics. Your providers will utilize this information to adjust your protocol and schedule your procedure.

Typically, more follicles lead to more eggs which lead to more embryos, which leads to a higher possibility of success. Many cycles will result in a handful of embryos that can be frozen and stored for future use.
