Reading the field
Every country above is graded against this published scale — the same 1–5 rubric for fertility preservation, top to bottom. How we score →
Country offers comprehensive fertility preservation services with 10+ internationally accredited facilities, state-of-the-art vitrification technology, post-thaw survival rates >90% for eggs and >95% for sperm, competitive pricing ($3,000-6,000 USD for egg freezing cycle), storage periods of 10+ years, established international patient programs, and ability to transfer materials globally. Strong regulatory framework with clear guidelines for medical tourists.
Country has 5-10 quality facilities offering preservation services, modern cryopreservation technology, survival rates >85% for eggs and >90% for sperm, reasonable costs ($6,000-10,000 USD for egg freezing), storage available for 5-10 years, some international patient support, and generally permissive regulations. May have minor limitations in rural availability or bureaucratic processes.
Country offers basic fertility preservation through 3-5 facilities, standard freezing techniques with acceptable survival rates (75-85% for eggs), moderate costs ($8,000-12,000 USD), storage available for standard periods, limited but functional international patient services. Some regulatory restrictions or procedural barriers may exist.
Very limited availability with 1-2 facilities offering preservation services, older technology with lower success rates (<75% survival), high costs ($12,000+ USD), short storage periods, minimal international patient support, significant regulatory barriers, or restrictions on unmarried individuals. Long wait times or complex bureaucratic processes.
Fertility preservation services unavailable, legally prohibited, or only available through unregulated providers. No established international patient programs, no quality assurance, or prohibitive legal/cultural barriers. Storage facilities inadequate or unreliable.
