Question

I have one tube shatered with scar tissue don't have second tube.My insurance don't cover IVF just meds. Can frozen embreyoes be transfered to another clinic?
Answer
Hello Anna from Canada,
In answer to your question, yes, the embryos can be easily transferred to another clinic for an FET. It can be arranged through your current clinic or new clinic.
You have to keep in mind that age has a big impact on your success. With increasing age, the egg quality decreases so that the majority of the embryos will be abnormal. They can still implant but they usually will lead to a miscarriage if they are not perfect. For that reason there is a higher miscarriage rate, and the probably cause of your miscarriages.
