What is egg freezing in Madrid and what is it for?
Egg freezing, also known as oocyte vitrification, is a fertility preservation technique that allows women to store their eggs in their healthiest state for future use.
In Madrid, egg freezing has become an increasingly popular option to ensure the possibility of having children in the future.
What is the process for freezing eggs in Madrid?
1. First diagnostic visit to evaluate each case
The first step is a diagnostic visit at Vida Fertility Madrid. During this consultation, a complete evaluation of the patient’s reproductive health is carried out. Blood tests, ultrasound scans and other tests necessary to design a personalised treatment plan are carried out.
2. Ovarian stimulation
In this phase, hormonal drugs are administered to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple mature eggs.
This process lasts approximately 10-12 days and is monitored by ultrasound and blood tests to ensure that the follicles are growing properly.
3. Ovarian puncture
Once the follicles have reached the appropriate size, the ovarian puncture is performed to extract the eggs. This procedure is performed under sedation and ultrasound guidance to ensure accuracy and minimise discomfort.
4. Oocyte vitrification
The extracted oocytes are subjected to the vitrification process, which consists of rapid freezing to avoid the formation of ice crystals that could damage them. The vitrified oocytes are stored in liquid nitrogen tanks until the patient decides to use them.
Who is it suitable for?

This process is especially useful for those who wish to postpone childbearing for personal, professional or medical reasons, such as cancer treatments that may affect fertility.
Egg vitrification is indicated for:
- Women who wish to delay motherhood for personal or professional reasons.
- Patients who are going to undergo medical treatments that may compromise their fertility, such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
- Women with a family history of early menopause.
- Those who have not yet found a suitable partner, but wish to ensure their ability to become mothers in the future.

Egg freezing testimonials from Vida Fertility Madrid
Our patients have shared testimonials about their experiences with egg vitrification at Vida Fertility Madrid.

It is incredible how, from absolute resignation, these doctors have lifted my spirits. They got me pregnant and gave me my life back. They live up to their name.

I had to find a way to become a mother if I wanted to pursue my career and not settle for just any partner. I made the right choice.

From the very first moment I felt I was being listened to, understood, and above all, I felt that my treatment was finally going in the right direction.

Hello dear Mrs Ortega,
you and the whole team of Vida fertility make us so happy. Finally a relief that we can be helped! Many thanks to you and all the others for the great care and exceptional quality work. This high quality means a lot to us. We hope that in 2024 we can take a healthy baby full of love into our arms.❤️

Thanks to Dr. Kathi’s support and by following all her advice, the best moment of the treatment came: I got pregnant.

I didn’t know if I would ever be able to get pregnant and now I’m in my 5th month of pregnancy.

It hasn’t been an easy journey. After the second attempt, I am happy to say that in two months I will be meeting my little girl.

Being able to experience this shared motherhood has been a gift for the two of us.
THANK YOU to this great team for everything!

We highly recommend Vida Fertility to anyone who has already given up hope and wants to give it one last try.

A huge thank you to the entire Vida Fertility team, especially to Sophie and Dr. Spies, who helped us achieve the wonderful project of expanding our family. We met a very competent team who perfectly guided and advised us on the medical choices to make at each stage of our journey. 🫶

I recommend Vida Fertility for their professionalism, humanism, and availability.
Our wonderful baby is the proof that the results are there!
Thank you!

Thanks to Vida fertility, we are now mums. Mums!!
It’s the greatest gift of all, we’re so happy!

The good feeling will certainly have contributed to the success of the treatment.
When we first contacted the clinic, I didn’t expect to become a mum so quickly, and now I even have hope that we might be able to create a sibling for our son with the remaining blastocysts.
Thank you!

I chose Vida Fertility because it’s a clinic that offers human support from the very beginning. I’m convinced that my state of mind, so influenced by the unconditional support they gave me, was key to the success of my treatment.

At the first consultation, I felt heard, understood, and full of hope again. The final transfer, our last chance, took place in February 2024… and it worked. Our little girl has brought immense joy to our whole family.

Being a single parent brings challenges, but I’d recommend anyone thinking about it to go for it. Vida Fertility made my dream come true with my first IVF.
