The egg freezing process typically involves several steps: 1. Ovarian Stimulation: Over a period of 10-14 days, hormone injections are administered to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. 2. Monitoring: Regular [ultrasound](href) and blood tests are conducted to monitor the development of the eggs. 3. Egg Retrieval: Once the eggs are mature, they are retrieved from the ovaries through a minor surgical procedure called [transvaginal ultrasound aspiration](href). 4. Freezing: The retrieved eggs are then frozen using a process called [vitrification](href), which prevents ice crystal formation and preserves the eggs for future use.
