Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government, between 2014 and 2019, how many women receiving frozen or thawed eggs (oocytes) subsequently had a live birth at term; and of this number, how many foetal or neonatal abnormalities were reported.

The following table shows the number of live births and congenital abnormalities from treatments using patients thawed eggs from 2014 to 2019.

Source: The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA)

Notes:

1. At term is provided as 37 weeks gestation or greater.
2. The data is as shown on the HFEA’s register database on 20 October 2022. This is a live database so these figures reflect the data on this day are likely to change over time. Data shown includes only treatments using patients own thawed eggs.
