Benefits of Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)

The benefits of FET:

• In certain situation, it gives time for the uterus environment to return to normal after IVF medications.
• It allows for pre-implantation test (PGT) for couples with history of genetic diseases. Under Singapore’s MOH regulations, only clinically eligible couples are allowed to do PGT.
• It reduces the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) during embryo transfer, especially in cases with high numbers of eggs retrieved.
• It can be scheduled on an elective basis.
• It allows for synchronisation between slow growing embryos and the womb environment.
