What is Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)?

 

Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) is a procedure where previously frozen embryos are thawed and transferred to the uterus to achieve pregnancy. This process is often used in conjunction with IVF and allows patients to use their preserved embryos at a time that’s right for them.
