Advanced egg-freezing technique as safe as IVF, research shows

Women who want to postpone motherhood to establish a career or find the right partner have been given new hope by research that shows the safety of an advanced egg-freezing technique. The most exhaustive study yet of children born after the freezing procedure found that they appeared to be as healthy as those conceived normally or by IVF, paving the way for its widespread use. The study, led by Ri-Cheng Chian, of McGill, is published in the journal Reproductive Biomedicine Online.
