A 26 year female patient who has cervical pre cancer cell and is about to freeze it to stop the active cell , is it safe to leave the eggs or is it better to freeze them for future embryos ?

Hi Doctor,

Thanks Doctor for reading my message.
I'm 37, went to 2 IVF cycle. In the 2nd cycle, I have 2 embryos that reach to day 5 blastocyst, and PGA test is normal.
We want a twin and we are thinking of doing 2 transfers, but I know most doctors recommend 1 transfer.
Your channel and videos are so informative and helpful. I really trust your advice since you are not only Fertility Doctor, you were also an IVF patient and went through the process as me and many ladies.
So I really would love to listen to your advice to have more ideas. It will help my husband and I make decsion.
Again, I appreciate your listening and time to response to my questions.

What is the success rate of frozen embryo transfer on cycle after making embryo with frozen donor egg and keeping it frozen again?

[@drlorashahine]

Depends on many factors! 50-70%

[@youtubetips559]

@@drlorashahine
If you tell the reasons? I would have benefited a lot.

[@ElizabethMBoyd]

@@youtubetips559 mostly depends on the age of the woman, any fertility issues, stats of the clinic used ect

[@drfadi34]

What the difference between temporary freezing and freezing whole year

[@drlorashahine]

None

[@MyAssefa]

I would say: If you are older than 35 definitely go for the embryos! And forget about the eggs 💡

[@fswatyahoocom]

Eggs have less personal or legal or ethical issues

[@anastasiab9506]

"Person with eggs"- No, That's a WOMAN. This female erasure coming from a DOCTOR of all people is horrifying.

[@jd-hs5lj]

As a woman myself i very much identify as being a person 😂 and am happy to be called one

[@Ryon-qy3jk]

And men can adopt egg and embryos so it would be wrong to call them a woman unless that’s how they edenufi!!!!!!
