Embryo Donation and Adoption Programs: Comparing and Contrasting the Options Many people who have an
interest in receiving donated embryos to achieve pregnancy are told there is a long waiting list. Not true! There

know it is possible to choose the family who will receive them. Learn about the differences and the similarities among Embryo Adoption

Embryo Quality and Cryopreservation Embryo quality has become more important for patients as they try
and select donor embryos. Reproductive Endocrinologists are concerned about embryo quality in regard to how they are
going to help patients achieve pregnancy success. The factors surrounding embryo quality are complex - especially given
the fact that there are now over 600,000 embryos in frozen storage and many of them have been in storage for many years.
Join us as Dr. Jeffrey Nelson of HRC Fertility untangles the term "embryo quality" and what traits hold significant
impact to pregnancy success using donor embryos.

differ regarding the final disposition of those embryos when their family building is complete. Our experts will share
