About the treatment

Frozen Embryo Transfer in Cyprus (FET) is a safe and well-established fertility treatment that uses previously frozen embryos to achieve pregnancy. During this process, embryos created in a prior IVF cycle are cryopreserved through advanced vitrification techniques and later transferred into the uterus when the body is optimally prepared.
At Pedieos IVF Center, we have been performing Frozen Embryo Transfers in Cyprus for many years, providing excellent success rates and individualized care. This gentle approach avoids the side effects of ovarian stimulation and allows patients to plan their treatment with flexibility and confidence.

Is Frozen Embryo Transfer right for you?

Frozen Embryo Transfer can be an ideal option for women and couples who want to build their families without undergoing another full IVF cycle. It may be recommended if you:

Need to store extra embryos from an IVF cycle for later use

Have older age or low ovarian reserve

Are at risk of Ovarian Hyperstimulation and need to delay transfer

Require genetic testing & must freeze embryos while awaiting results

How FET Works

The Frozen Embryo Transfer process is straightforward and minimally invasive. Each step is carefully performed by our embryologists to ensure precision and comfort.

Medication

Medication is given to prepare the uterine lining so it can receive the embryo. Once the endometrium is ready, embryos are thawed for transfer.

Embryo Transfer

Thawed embryos are placed into the uterus, either at cleavage stage (Day 3) or blastocyst stage (Day 5), in a simple procedure.

Laser Assisted Hatching

A gentle laser is used to thin the embryo’s outer shell, helping it implant more easily into the uterine lining.
