Some diagnostic tests and procedures may be eligible for insurance reimbursement, depending on your policy. We provide detailed receipts and assist with documentation if needed.
Egg Freezing & Fertility Preservation
- What is the best age to freeze your eggs?
The ideal age to freeze your eggs is between 25 and 35, when egg quality and quantity are at their peak. Freezing earlier generally leads to better outcomes later. - How does the egg freezing process work at EPIA?
We begin with fertility testing and counselling, followed by a personalised stimulation cycle. Eggs are retrieved under mild sedation, flash-frozen using vitrification, and stored in a secure facility until you’re ready to use them. - Is egg freezing safe and does it affect future fertility?
Yes, egg freezing is safe when performed under medical supervision. It does not harm your natural fertility and allows you to use frozen eggs later for IVF or other assisted techniques. - How much does egg freezing cost in Delhi NCR?
Costs vary depending on medical needs but generally start around ₹20,000 and can go upto more than ₹2,00,000 per cycle. Storage charges are separate. We offer transparent pricing after your consultation. - How long can frozen eggs be stored at EPIA?
Frozen eggs can be safely stored for up to 10–15 years. Our labs follow international cryopreservation standards and maintain eggs in secure, monitored environments. - What is the success rate of pregnancy using frozen eggs?
Success rates depend on the age at which eggs were frozen and their quality. When eggs are frozen before age 35, pregnancy rates can be similar to those of fresh IVF cycles—up to 40–50% per embryo transfer. At EPIA, the egg thawing success rate is 99%, ensuring the highest chance of using preserved eggs effectively.
Fertility Testing & Diagnosis
- What fertility tests are available at EPIA?
We offer AMH, FSH, LH, thyroid profile, ultrasound scans, ovarian reserve assessments, endometrial tests, and genetic screening for a complete fertility profile. - What is AMH testing and why is it important?
AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone) test measures your ovarian reserve. It helps predict how many eggs you might produce during a fertility cycle and is key to planning egg freezing or IVF. - Can I get a complete fertility check-up even if I’m not trying to conceive?
Yes. Many women choose fertility testing for awareness and planning. Early insights help you make informed decisions about timing, preservation, and possible interventions. - How can I test for low ovarian reserve or early menopause risk?
AMH and ultrasound antral follicle count (AFC) are key indicators. We combine test results with personal history to assess your ovarian aging and recommend options. - Does EPIA offer pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)?
Yes, for couples undergoing IVF, PGD is available to screen embryos for genetic conditions before transfer. We also offer carrier screening and genetic compatibility testing.
Advanced Fertility Services & Treatments
- What is ovarian rejuvenation and who should consider it?
Ovarian rejuvenation is a regenerative therapy that may help improve egg quality or ovarian function in women with low AMH or early ovarian decline. Suitability is assessed during consultation. - What is IVF freezing and is it different from egg freezing?
IVF freezing involves fertilising eggs with sperm, creating embryos, and freezing them for later use. Egg freezing preserves unfertilised eggs for future fertilisation. - Does EPIA offer assisted hatching or blastocyst transfer?
Yes, both techniques are available to improve embryo implantation rates. We individualise these choices based on age, embryo quality, and prior treatment history. - How does EPIA support women with PCOS or irregular periods?
We offer hormonal assessments, cycle tracking, dietary guidance, ovulation monitoring, and fertility consultations tailored for women with PCOS or irregular cycles. - Can I consult for endometriosis or pelvic pain at EPIA?
Absolutely. Endometriosis-related symptoms can impact fertility. We offer ultrasound-based diagnosis, pain management, and fertility planning for such conditions.
Women’s Health & Gynaecology
- What is included in the annual gynaecological check-up at EPIA?
Our check-up includes menstrual and hormonal review, Pap smear, HPV testing, pelvic and breast exams, infection screening, and a consult on contraceptive and fertility health. - Does EPIA offer support for menopause and perimenopause?
Yes. We provide guidance on hormonal changes, bone health, vaginal health, and symptom relief through both medical and non-hormonal therapies. - How can I book a consultation for vaginal infections or UTIs?
You can call or book online for a same-week consultation. We offer discreet care, quick testing, and immediate treatment for infections or discomfort. - What is cosmetic gynaecology and is it available at EPIA?
Cosmetic gynaecology includes non-surgical treatments for vaginal laxity, dryness, pigmentation, and aesthetic concerns. These are optional wellness procedures offered under expert care. - Can I get a Pap smear or HPV test done at your clinic?
Yes. Pap smear and HPV testing are available at the EPIA centre. They are recommended every 3 years (or as advised) to screen for cervical cancer risks.

Yes. If you’re thinking of starting a family in the near future, we can assess your fertility health, run key tests, and help you prepare physically and emotionally. - Can lifestyle, yoga or supplements improve my fertility?
While lifestyle changes can’t change your egg count, they can positively influence hormone balance and egg health. We provide tailored guidance based on your profile. - How do I prepare for egg freezing mentally and physically?
We offer pre-procedure counselling, hormonal preparation, and medical evaluation. Mentally, many women find peace knowing they’re taking proactive steps for their future. - What should I expect in my first fertility consultation at EPIA?
