The fertility preservation process begins with the same hormone- injection process as in vitro fertilization (IVF). Once the eggs are retrieved and mature, they are prepared for the vitrification (freezing) process and instantaneously exposed to Liquid Nitrogen at an extremely low temperature (-320.8°F). 2. This process allows our patients to bank their eggs and prolong their fertility to a time that makes the most sense for them. 3.
