What Is Egg Freezing?
Egg freezing is a cutting-edge reproductive procedure where a woman's eggs are retrieved and cryopreserved for future use, providing a valuable option for those who may wish to have a child in the future. Performed under the expert care of Dr. Norbert Gleicher and Dr. David H. Barad, egg freezing can be a vital part of a fertility plan for patients facing medical treatments that could affect their fertility or if they simply want to extend their fertility window. The Center for Human Reproduction is a comprehensive fertility center offering a variety of egg freezing packages tailored to our patients' unique fertility needs. To learn more about egg freezing or to find out if this fertility service is ideal for your family planning needs, contact our state-of-the-art facility in New York, NY to schedule your consultation.
How Does Egg Freezing Work?
Dr. Gleicher and Dr. Barad are committed to guiding each patient through the egg freezing process with compassion and care. They will discuss what to expect during your fertility journey and answer any questions you may have. At the Center for Human Reproduction, egg freezing will typically begin with fertility-enhancing medications to stimulate the ovaries and increase egg production. Once the eggs have matured, an outpatient procedure will be performed at our clinic in New York, NY to retrieve them. These eggs are then carefully identified and frozen using innovative cryopreservation techniques. When and if you decide it's time to start a family, your eggs can be thawed, fertilized, and transferred as embryos to give you an ideal chance of a healthy pregnancy.
What Are the Benefits of Egg Freezing?
Egg freezing at the Center of Human Reproduction can offer you several advantages if you are planning for a future family. A few of the key benefits of egg freezing include:
- Preserves fertility for those wishing to delay having a child
- Offers options for those undergoing medical treatments that could affect fertility
- Provides peace of mind about future reproduction options
- Allows for planned pregnancies based on personal or professional aspirations

Great Doctor
Dr. Barad has elegant solutions to medical issues and is a skilled practitioner.
We are writing this letter of gratitude for Dr Norbert Gleicher and the entire staff at Center for Human Reproduction. My wife and I are so very thankful that we listened to Dr Gleicher's advice back on October 1st,2021 during a consultation he advised us to not allow our fertilized eggs to be discarded and killed.Our two eggs were tested and declared to be irregular by another IVF lab. We kept the eggs frozen and after 4 more failed IVF cycles came to Dr Gleicher for another try. We asked Dr Gleicher if it was worth a try to have eggs transferred into my wife and he studied the data and approved of the procedure. On February 7th,2024 we had 2 frozen eggs transferred and waited for the results.Finally later in February after the 13 day wait we were advised of blood test that confirmed that we were pregnant with an xx embryo from the transfer.XX is a girl and a huge feeling warmth and happiness overwhelmed both of us. We had several ultrasounds during the 4-5 weeks following and all were very positive with strong heartbeat and great growth, Today my wife is approaching her 18th week pregnant and all is going great with the development and follow up visits. Our baby is growing by the day and we look forward to our 20 week ultrasound for further development rate. If we had not discussed and listened to Dr Gleicher back in 2021 we would never have been so far with a pregnancy. The entire staff is wonderful and Hui Na was very helpful and communicative through the entire process with my wife. Please accept our sincere thank you and heartfelt praise for the team. Our baby is due around Oct 26th,2024 and we intend to vist to say thanks in person,we will make the trip from our home in Florida. Blessings to all.
My husband & I had an initial consultation with Dr. Barad, and were blown away by the time he spent with us & care he put into our conversation & next steps. For the first time in a long time on our infertility journey, it felt like someone actually heard us & our concerns. He's already suggested some new approaches we can take towards having a healthy pregnancy, that no other doctor ever mentioned, and we've been at this for years! The peace of mind & hope he offered alone were worth it. Would highly recommend.
