Egg Vitrification: Stop the Biological Clock

Egg Freezing is the hot topic this week. Thank you to Dr. Christo Zouves from Zouves Fertility Center of Foster City, California for this educational video regarding Egg Vitrification. Many don't  know how egg and/or embryo freezing is accomplished and Dr. Zouves explains Egg Vitrification and compares it to traditional cyopreservation. As a visual person, I appreciate this and hope it helps clear up the mystery of how freezing occurs. Another interesting thing about this video is that it includes an interview with a woman who needed IVF years ago to conceive her children. She and her daughter, now a young woman, are advocates of egg banking.
