During the standard course of IVF [in vitro fertilization] infertility treatment, hormones are used to stimulate the development of multiple eggs. After these eggs are retrieved and fertilized in the laboratory, there may be more embryos created than can reasonably be transferred to the woman’s uterus. When these "extra" embryos are of sufficient quality, they may be cryopreserved (frozen) so that they may be transferred at a future date. [...] Cryopreserved embryos are replaced during either a natural menstrual cycle or a hormonally controlled cycle. 3, record 2, English, - frozen%20embryo

Si le nombre d’embryons obtenus [par fécondation in vitro] est supérieur au nombre d’embryons transférés, les embryons surnuméraires peuvent être congelés à condition qu'ils soient de très bonne qualité(grades 3 et 4).

En algunos casos, como producto de la hiperestimulación ovárica, se obtienen más embriones de los necesarios, los cuales no se desechan sino que se conservan congelados a muy bajas temperaturas. Para ello, 48 a 72 horas después de haberse producido la fertilización, se los introduce en recipientes herméticos de vidrio rotulados por identidad y se los sumerge en depósitos de nitrógeno líquido. En estas condiciones se detiene su metabolismo, lo que permite almacenarlos durante mucho tiempo. Estos embriones criopreservados serán utilizados para futuros intentos [...] 4, record 2, Spanish, - embri%C3%B3n%20congelado
