FERTILITY PRESERVATION
Egg Freezing in the UK
Egg freezing is a form of fertility preservation in which eggs are collected, frozen and stored for possible future use.
What does egg freezing involve?
The process generally involves ovarian stimulation, egg collection, freezing and storage. If the eggs are used later, they are thawed and used in fertility treatment.

Success rates and expectations
Egg freezing is not a guarantee of a future pregnancy. Egg-freezing technology has developed over time, so it is worth asking clinics for current, relevant success-rate information when researching treatment.
