What is the procedure for artificial cycle transplantation of frozen embryos?

Every woman wants to be a mother, but in life, some women cannot get pregnant due to illness or other physical problems. This is a great blow to women. With the continuous development of medical technology, artificial cycle transplantation of frozen embryos can help women conceive. However, this method is only suitable for women with irregular menstruation or amenorrhea. So what is the procedure for artificial cycle transplantation of frozen embryos?

First, what is the procedure for artificial cycle transplantation of frozen embryos? The artificial cycle program is mainly aimed at patients with irregular menstruation, amenorrhea or poor response to ovulation induction, long-term persistent anovulation, and stubborn polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). By using drugs to simulate the state of the endometrium and the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body during natural conception. Generally, estrogen is used in the early stage of the menstrual cycle to prepare for the growth and development of the endometrium. When ultrasound monitoring shows that the endometrium has reached a certain thickness and has a good blood supply, and abnormal conditions such as intrauterine adhesions and endometrial polyps have been ruled out, drugs can be used to simulate the corpus luteum function and arrange an appropriate time to thaw frozen embryos for transplantation.

Second, artificial cycles require fewer visits to the hospital, and the medication cycle is more stable and not affected by ovulation, but more drugs are required, which increases the risk of complications for patients with comorbidities such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Clinically, an artificial cycle program is generally started in the early stages of the menstrual cycle. This program requires fewer visits to the hospital, has a more stable medication cycle, and is not affected by ovulation. However, there are certain disadvantages, such as the need to use more drugs, which will increase the risk of complications for patients with comorbidities such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

What is the procedure for artificial cycle frozen embryo transplantation? Generally speaking, after transplanting fresh embryos, the remaining embryos of good quality will be frozen for clinical preservation. At the same time, if a woman has severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, it is not appropriate to transplant fresh embryos in this cycle. The embryos can also be frozen and then revived and transplanted later. If a person has a sensitive body or obtains multiple eggs at a time and is prone to some serious sensitive physical reactions, the doctor will recommend frozen embryo transfer during the artificial cycle. In addition, for those who are doing IVF for the first time, artificial cycle is still the first choice.
