Fresh embryos, fresh eggs
Eggs were retrieved from a donor and fertilized (if applicable) during the current cycle.

Fresh embryos, frozen eggs
Eggs were retrieved from a donor during a previous cycle and frozen for future use. The donated eggs were frozen prior to transfer, but any resulting embryos were not.

Frozen embryos
This is ART cycles involving frozen embryos created from fresh or frozen donor eggs. In the case of fresh donor eggs, the eggs were retrieved from a donor during a previous cycle and fertilized, and then the resulting embryo was frozen for future use. In the case of frozen donor eggs, the eggs were retrieved from a donor during a previous cycle, frozen, thawed, and fertilized, and then the resulting embryos were frozen for future use.

Donated embryos
Embryos donated from another patient or couple after their own ART treatment. The embryos can be fresh or frozen.
