Egg freezing, or oocyte cryopreservation, is a process where a woman’s eggs are collected, preserved, and stored for future use. This allows women to delay pregnancy for personal, professional, or medical reasons without compromising fertility. At Nulife IVF Clinic in Seawoods, our female fertility specialists in Navi Mumbai provide personalized guidance, ensuring the highest quality care during every stage—from ovarian stimulation to egg retrieval and safe long-term storage. Egg freezing is particularly recommended for women planning IVF in the future, facing medical treatments that may impact fertility, or wanting reproductive flexibility.
