The world is a different place today than that in which our mothers and grandmothers lived. Many of today's modern couples choose to start a family later in life. Embryo Banking allows these couples the chance to freeze embryos and delay starting their families until the time is right. Also, during the IVF process many couples naturally produce an embryo surplus. Freezing surplus embryos until future cycles can circumvent additional egg retrievals. And last, for singles & couples with little time left on their fertility clock, Embryo Banking is an ideal strategy and gives the best insurance for starting a family later, especially if they want more than one child.
