Key Considerations When Choosing a Clinic
Age Considerations
Success rates are higher when eggs are frozen at a younger age, ideally before 35. Most clinics have upper age limits between 43-45.
Cost Breakdown
Consider all costs: initial consultation, medications, egg collection, freezing procedure, and annual storage fees.
Success Rates
Ask about clinic-specific success rates for egg freezing and subsequent thawing and fertilization.
Storage Duration
Eggs can be stored for up to 55 years in the UK. Discuss storage costs and clinic-specific policies.
