From when you first start medication until your egg retrieval (which is part of egg freezing and embryo freezing), it takes 4-6 weeks. Recovery is typically quick, with many patients feeling back to normal within 24-48 hours.
Embryo freezing also involves fertilization, embryo growth, and typically PGT-A testing. This adds up to 2 weeks post-retrieval.
When going through treatment at HFC, you’ll receive a personalized planning calendar to help you work around your schedule. -
