Description
In the evolving landscape of IVF treatments, Prof. Michael Chapman discusses the increasing adoption of the "freeze-all" approach, where all viable embryos are frozen for later transfer.  While some suggest frozen embryo transfers yield higher success rates, Prof. Chapman notes that evidence shows comparable outcomes for good-quality frozen and fresh embryos. Key benefits of freeze-all cycles include enabling genetic testing and avoiding issues with elevated progesterone levels, which can impact implantation timing.  Explore the 'Prof. Michael Chapman - The IVF Journey' Facebook Page, your reliable destination for cutting-edge insights and guidance within the realm of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
