  • *Women who contemplated embryo and egg banking are grouped together because in many cases those who discussed one option also discussed the other. The discussion focused on egg retrieval commonly and then what could be done to those eggs (i.e. either be fertilised for embryo banking or frozen alone for egg banking).
