Is your chance is better in getting pregnant with invitro fertilization procedure using fresh cycle instead of frozen cycle?

In general, fresh embryo transfer cycles result in higher pregnancy rates compared to frozen embryo transfer cycles. Here are some reasons why:

1. Quality of Embryos: Fresh embryos are newly created from freshly obtained eggs and sperm. They have not undergone any freezing or thawing process, which can potentially impact their viability and quality. Fresh embryos are generally more robust and have higher implantation potential compared to frozen embryos.

2. Synchronization of the Uterus: During a fresh embryo transfer, the uterus is naturally prepared for implantation due to the recent hormonal stimulation during the egg retrieval process. This synchronized environment enhances the receptivity of the endometrium, making it more receptive to the implantation of fresh embryos.

3. Reduced Time Interval: With a fresh embryo transfer, there is a shorter time interval between fertilization and embryo transfer. This minimizes the risk of potential delays or complications that may occur during the freezing and thawing process of embryos.

4. No Storage Costs: Fresh embryo transfers eliminate the need for embryo storage, which can incur additional costs in terms of cryopreservation and long-term storage facilities.

However, it's important to note that frozen embryo transfer cycles have their own advantages, such as allowing for genetic testing of embryos (preimplantation genetic testing or PGT), better control over the timing of the transfer, and the ability to preserve embryos for future use.

The choice between fresh and frozen embryo transfer depends on various factors, including the patient's specific circumstances, preferences, and recommendations from the fertility specialist. A personalized consultation with a fertility specialist can help determine the best approach based on individual needs and medical history.
