5 Recommended Hospitals and Clinics for Egg Freezing in Tokyo [2026]: Choosing with Future IVF in Mind

When it comes to egg freezing, it is important not only to consider "where to freeze your eggs now," but also to choose a clinic with the future use of those eggs in mind.

When using frozen eggs, the process involves thawing, performing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), embryo culture, and embryo transfer. Additionally, there is a possibility that the eggs will be stored for several years, or in some cases, more than 10 years.

Therefore, in this article, we have selected 5 hospitals and clinics in Tokyo that offer egg freezing based on the following three perspectives:
・Having a proven track record in treatment, looking ahead to future IVF
・Having provided reproductive medicine for many years
・Being located near a station for easy access

※The following is not a ranking, and there is no superiority or inferiority based on the order of listing.


What we prioritized in choosing an egg freezing clinic

1. Proven track record in egg retrieval and embryo transfer, looking ahead to future IVF

When using frozen eggs in the future, the eggs are thawed, fertilized, cultured into embryos, and transferred to the uterus.

Therefore, we prioritized facilities where you can verify their track record not only in egg freezing but also in subsequent IVF and embryo transfer.

For comparison between facilities, we used 2019 and 2020 data from the "Medical Institutions Implementing Specified Infertility Treatment Subsidy Programs" published by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Bureau of Social Welfare and Public Health.

This time, we combined the number of frozen embryo transfers and the number of live births for women aged 35 to under 40 for both years, targeting clinics with 100 or more frozen embryo transfers, calculated the live birth rate using "Number of live births ÷ Number of frozen embryo transfers," and used this as a reference for selecting clinics.

Furthermore, as supplementary information to confirm the scale of treatment at the facilities, we have also included egg retrieval performance data published by the Children and Families Agency.

※The live birth rate data is not the treatment outcome after egg freezing, but the performance of frozen embryo transfer in infertility treatment. It is used as a reference indicator to look at the treatment track record of facilities that will perform ICSI, embryo culture, and embryo transfer in the future.

2. Long-standing experience in reproductive medicine

Eggs may be stored for a long period of time.

While this does not mean that new clinics are inferior, considering that you will be entrusting your eggs for a long time, having a long history of providing reproductive medicine was also made a selection criterion.

3. Located near a station for easy access

For egg freezing, you will need to visit the clinic multiple times for consultations, blood tests, and ultrasound examinations before egg retrieval. In addition to the distance from the station, we also checked whether they are open for consultations on weekday evenings and on weekends and holidays.

Choosing by Comparing Egg Freezing Costs

Regarding medical institutions registered with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's egg freezing subsidy program, we compare the costs and storage fees for freezing 8 or 10 eggs in a single retrieval in a separate article.


Summary | Choose a Clinic for Egg Freezing with Future IVF in Mind

For egg freezing, you need to choose a facility that considers not only the time of egg retrieval, but also the time when you will use those eggs in the future.

In this article, we introduced 5 clinics based on their track record in IVF, the duration they have been providing reproductive medicine, and ease of access.

Especially when considering long-term storage, please compare facilities not only by current convenience, but also from the perspective of whether it is a facility you want to entrust with your future intracytoplasmic sperm injection, embryo culture, and embryo transfer.

*The birth rates for 2019 and 2020 listed are past treatment results and do not indicate current treatment outcomes.
