What is Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)?
Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) is a fertility treatment in which a previously frozen embryo is carefully thawed and transferred into the uterus at the optimal time for implantation. These embryos are created during an IVF cycle and cryopreserved using advanced freezing techniques for future use.
