Elective freeze-all
Freezing all embryos and transferring in a later cycle rather than fresh.
The verdict
Useful for specific medical reasons (e.g. OHSS risk), not as a routine default.
| Body | Position |

| HFEA |
|
| ESHRE | Not for routine use Not recommended for routine clinical use (specifically not for PCOS or for OHSS prevention as a routine default; freeze-all and fresh cycles are broadly equivalent, possibly longer time-to-pregnancy, lower OHSS risk). Source |
| NICE | Not addressed Not addressed as an add-on in NG257. |
| ISAR | No position Not addressed in the 2021 ISAR add-ons consensus. |
In India
Vitrification/freezing ~₹25,000–60,000.
