Embryo transfer (fresh & frozen) — New York, NY
The transfer is the last step of IVF: an embryo is placed in the uterus, fresh from the cycle or thawed from a frozen one. U.S. practice has shifted decisively toward frozen transfers, which allow genetic testing, better timing with the uterine lining, and lower risk from ovarian stimulation.
The number that matters as much as the live-birth rate is the singleton rate. Transferring multiple embryos raises the birth rate on paper while raising the real risks — prematurity and complications — that come with twins and triplets. Good programs get strong results transferring one embryo at a time.

What to ask at a consult
- Do you default to single embryo transfer, and what is your singleton live-birth rate?
- Fresh or frozen for my case — and why?
- What does a frozen transfer cost if my first transfer doesn't succeed?
