A Birthday gift giving back to the future!
I did not plan to have any children at first. I enjoy the time with myself and my freedom. That was me a few years ago. But people change, especially when you are at your most vulnerable moment when you are sick. Someone in the family got sick, everyone in the family is called up to help. That's when I realized you can never have enough family members.
This is the moment when my thought of freezing my eggs appears. Your child is not necessarily staying with you the whole life. But it is always nice knowing that you have a family that cares about you. Raising a child is not an easy task in 2020, as well as having pets or keeping myself warm.
The thought planted in my head for so long, it finally sprouted. I turned 39 this year, is the same age that my mother gave birth to me. Time is flying. I realize that I have to take some action! I studied a lot online and found Stork Fertility Center's website. They have detailed blog posts and graphics at a glance. Suddenly I apprehend that the quality of your eggs is tile with your age.
When I realized that I am competing with time, I started doing research comparing different hospitals and fertility centers. I finally chose Stork Fertility Center. They specialize in infertility and fertility preservation. Their treatment plan aimed at achieving "4- F". Fewer blood tests, fewer ultrasound exams, fewer injections, fewer clinic visits. That's a big attraction for me as I can not get away from work that often.
I make that as a birthday gift to myself. Thanks to the advanced modern medical technology, I can freeze my fertility at this age and have a hold of my future. Some might say that you might never use those eggs. Why bother to spend all that money on that? I think egg freezing is like time traveling. When you are planning for a family maybe five years later, you will be thankful that you made the right decision. Time is irreversible, no matter how much money you own. A word before is worth two behind.
Stork Fertility Center's team is very professional and helpful throughout the treatment. They helped me to arrange the time so that I won't have to take so many off from work. In the end, I only take one day off for surgery day. The blood tests, ultrasound, and clinic visits were all arranged at mine non-working hours. They have their application. It shows your itinerary daily by just one click on your phone. And the surgery took only 10-15 minutes. The operation room's ambiance is warming, not like any other hospital. You feel comfier with the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff.
Egg freezing is like insurance. You will feel safer after having one. This is probably the most meaningful birthday gift that I ever had.
Note :
1. Stork Fertility Center offers "4-F" treatment. Fewer blood tests, fewer ultrasound exams, fewer injections, and fewer clinic visits. The treatment is done with a minimum of two clinic visits. Just like our case above, taking only one day off from work! Before anyone knows, you already finished the treatment!
2. The case froze ten mature eggs at her first treatment.
Doctors suggest that the number of frozen mature eggs in each age group is different. It is related to age. With higher age, comes with a higher chromosome abnormal rate. Egg freeze treatment is suggested before age 35. The pregnancy rate and live-birth rate are relatively better.
3.The recommended number of mature eggs for cryopreservation for bringing a baby home at different ages is as follows:
|
AGE |
35 or below |
35~38 |
39~40 |
>40 |
|
Number of mature
eggs |

FAQ
Will frozen eggs be used?
There are not many things that can surpass the future. Egg freezing is one of them. Some people worry about “won’t use it”. This depends on “age” and “whether you want to get married”. If there is no stable relationship between the ages of 35 and 37, it means that the chance of marriage is not high at the age of 38 to 40. At this time, egg freezing is the right choice and the CP value is the highest. As empirical medicine shows that women’s egg quality declines rapidly at the age of 38, the cost doubles of IVF.
Do I have to get married to get pregnant with frozen eggs?
Yes, according to Taiwan’s Artificial Reproduction Law, a legal marriage relationship is required to implement artificial reproduction technology. Or you may choose to export your eggs abroad for related treatment services in the future.
How long can an egg be frozen?
Frozen eggs use vitrification technology to store eggs in a stable environment of liquid nitrogen at -196°C for a long time. Many studies have found that vitrification causes much less damage than slow freezing and has a survival rate of more than 90%. Therefore, there is no shelf life on the technical level.
Will an ovulation injection lead to earlier menopause?
No. The number of female eggs is determined at the moment of birth. There are already hundreds of thousands of eggs in the egg warehouse. During the growth period, in addition to the regular discharge of menstruation, other eggs will also self-deplete as the years grow.
Without the aid of any medication, the female hormones secreted in the body are only enough to supply 1 to 2 eggs to mature, and the remaining small follicles that are not selected will shrink on their own. The ovulation needle only provides enough hormones to allow these eggs to grow up and be taken out, and will not affect the inventory or premature menopause.
Are there any risks in egg retrieval surgery?
The most worrying risk after receiving ovulation induction treatment is "Ovarian Hyperstimulation (OHSS)", the incidence rate is less than 5%. Our hospital designs the most appropriate ovulation induction treatment according to your ovarian function, and matches with sustained ovulation injections and different Egg-breaking injections to greatly reduce the probability of OHSS.
Do I need to get pregnant via IVF after freezing eggs?
Yes. The ovulation injection treatment is carried out, and the young eggs are surgically removed and stored in advance. Wait until the right time, thaw the egg for subsequent fertilization (IVF treatment), and at the same time incubate in vitro for 3~5 days before implanting the good embryo into the mother's uterus. The whole pregnancy will not be completed until the healthy baby is born after term.
Will using frozen eggs affect the subsequent fertilization rate and pregnancy?
We adopt the Japanese Kuwayama vitrification technology, and successfully completed the first case of egg freezing in November 2009. Every year, more female friends continue to use this method to successfully fulfill their wish of becoming a mother.
In addition, according to the latest statistical analysis of this fertility center, the survival rate of frozen eggs is above 90%, and there is no significant difference between the fertilization rate, clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate of fresh eggs. This shows that vitrification technology will not affect the eggs, and the potential for pregnancy is comparable.

she didn't want to fly over for ERA, so we transfer 1 normal embryo with the traditional format. Unfortunately, we failed. She did ERA at the next month, found that.....
Can we control our future ? What if we can make plans for our life, what will your future like?
Miss F from Nanjing, China, had followed her plan of life, came to Stork at the age of 32, with a high AMH data, 3.81ng/ml. Been through 2 oocyte-pick up surgery, froze and stored 25 mature eggs.
Two years later, Miss F meet her Mr.Right and got married. Tried to have a baby for a year but life is not what she expected. Did a test of her AMH again, only 0.8 left. At age 35, she thawed the eggs started IVF treatment. 20 out 25 mature eggs survived, after insemination, culture for 6 days, we created 9 embryos, and 5 of them graded 5BB and the other 4 were BC grade. Implantation fails or success, it really depends on whether the chromosome is normal or not, even if the gradings are good.
Embryo gradings are just for reference, Miss F choose to do IVF 3.0+, 5 BB grading embryos were all biopsied and 3 of them sent for PGS test. Two out of three are with normal chromosome, one is with partial abnormalities. With younger age group comes with lower chromosome abnormalities, she is very lucky that she had chosen to freeze eggs at a young age. According to statistics, the embryos that created by the 32-year-old group can have almost 60% normal chromosome rate. These 3 embryos are suitable for implantation, form our experience, transfer 1 embryo with normal chromosome can achieve 60~70% pregnancy rate.
As Miss F lives overseas, she didn't want to fly over for ERA, so we transfer 1 normal embryo with the traditional format. Unfortunately, we failed. She did ERA at the next month, found that the WOI(window of implantation) is different than others, intake progesterone for 96 hours, which is 24hours earlier than our traditional format, that might be the main reason why we failed the first time.
Two months later, Miss F took progesterone for 96 hours and with a normal embryo, we performed precise implantation. After two weeks, her ßHCG data reached 10,567! Three more weeks later, we have a heartbeat. She is now a happy mother-to-be.
What were the factors of a perfect ending? the answer is ’IVF 3.0+’. Without PGS, how can we know whether the embryos are normal or not? Without ERA how can we know the precise WOI for each one? It is a huge waste if we transfer a normal embryo at the wrong time. Also if we are at the right time transferring an untested embryo, is just gambling. Is not like we can depend on appearance only. With PP-IVF ( personalized precision IVF), we can make it work.
Life is full of uncertainty, we can not control our future, but we can freeze our eggs for our future. About egg freezing, some might not understand how it works or near heard of it, worrying about it is not useable in the future, or the thaw-egg pregnancy rate. Afraid of missing put the optimal age to conceive a child, at the age 35-37, the cost-performance ratio is the best. It is proofed by science, after age 38, the quality of egg drop rapidly, which made the coat of doing IVF a lot higher compared to use frozen egg at age 35-37.
Stork’s oocyte bank use thawed egg for egg recipients’ IVF treatment, at 2018, we thawed 7,604 eggs and 7,206 survived. The survival rate achieved by 95%. The following fertilization rate 77%, embryo rate 66%. It's much likely equal to fresh eggs. determine the technology level is not only by the freeze-thaw result. Appling polarized microscope to do insemination at the right time is also very important. As well as the embryo culture system, and can it apply PGS to determine whether the embryo is normal? If the answers are all YES, then transfer 1 normal embryo can reach 80% pregnancy rate. This is the most important criterion to choose to freeze " Beyond Egg". It is only worth it if we can use the Beyond egg to create the highest pregnancy rate!

2/20/2019 11:19:00 PM
I’ll be 39 in 2 months. Of course, my birthday wishes are meeting a perfect guy and having a happy family. Maybe it's not the time yet, my Mr. Right hasn’t showed up. In order to keep my egg fresh, I decided to contact one of my friends, Amber, who works in Stork Fertility Center. After knowing the cost and process of egg freezing, I shared this information to my close single friends. However, none of them was interested in it. Therefore, I held back from thinking this thought.March, 2018I think it is fate. In the Lunar New Year, my relatives mentioned the topic of egg freezing and asked me how’s my treatment going. My mom heard and also encouraged me to keep going my treatment. After that, I asked my close friends again. Finally, one of my close friends would like to join me. Thus, I called Amber right away and scheduled the following steps.Before treatment start, Amber scheduled me to do the Ovary check. The result showed my AMH was only 1.9 which was less than normal data. It strengthened my determination of freezing my eggs.On the Second day of my period, I went to Hsinchu for meeting my doctor. My doctor was Ms. Sophia. We have been through the conversation and checking my virginal. After that, the person from center helped me inject a long-action rFSH. Because I live in Taipei, which means I can't come back to Stork frequently. That's why they prepare a back-up injection for me.There are two office visits during the treatment; one office visit is on the 8th day of period, another is on the 10th day. These two visits were in their corporation clinic in Taipei, that's why I didn’t need to go to Hsinchu. On the 12th day of my period, I went to Hsinchu for egg retrieval. After going through whole process of egg freezing, it's not as complicated as I thought. It could be done in two weeks, and only return to Stork twice for body check-up and egg retrieval. And then I could just follow up at their corporation clinic in Taipei. In addition, the total cost of the treatment is only 110k which is affordable for me.Based on my experience, Egg freezing treatment is not difficult, just need to have confidence on Stork, have time, and fee ready. Following the instruction and steps that Stork provide. With Stork you could trust it, enjoy the professional service and lasted equipment.
