Dr. Tee SP graduated from University of Malaya with Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) in 1982. He then performed his specialization training in O&G at Seremban General Hospital, University Kebangsaan Malaysia and finally at John Radcliffe Hospital, University of Oxford and was admitted as a member of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in 1989 and later as a Fellow of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (FRCOG).
His passion in assisted reproductive technology and fertility treatment led him to pursue his training locally and in National University of Singapore. He qualified with postgraduate Diploma in Reproductive Medicine from the National Population & Family Development Board, Malaysia (LPPKN) in collaboration with Johns Hopkins’ Programme for international Education in O&G, Bachelor of Science in Computing (Hons) from University of Portsmouth, UK and Master of Business Administration from University Tunku Abdul Rahman, Malaysia.
He is one of the pioneer fertility specialists in Malaysia and established Metro IVF Centre in Klang in 1999 and the first IVF pregnancy was delivered in 2000. In 2008, Dr. Tee is one of the key initiators for IVF collaboration between private and public health institutions including Hospital Tengku Ampuan Rahimah, (Metro HTAR IVF Shared Care Programme) and with UiTM (Metro UiTM Private Specialist Centre IVF Shared Care Programme).
With over 20 years of experience in IVF, Dr. Tee has led Metro IVF and it’s group of medical professionals in achieving internationally recognised success rates. The group has since expanded to 7 branches nationwide and was publicly listed in February 2018 on Bursa Malaysia.
Dr. Tee is presently the fertility specialist at Metro IVF and clinical assistant professor at Faculty of Health Science & Medicine at University of Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) and also the treasure and president elect of the Malaysian Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (MSART).

Frozen
Embryo
Transfer
(FET)
Spare embryos from your IVF treatment can be frozen for future use, depending on their quality, and also embryos resulting from an IVF cycle but not transferred at the end of the cycle can be cryopreserved and stored.
When the patient is ready to have another child, her embryo(s) are thawed and transferred to her uterus at the appropriate point in her menstrual cycle. This process is called a frozen embryo transfer (FET).
A patient preparing for a FET has blood testing and ultrasound scans that enable to identification the appropriate point in the patient’s cycle to transfer the embryo(s). Some FET patients may also take hormone medication to prepare for the transfer.
FETs have high success rates and do not require a full IVF cycle.
Some patients may also undergo “natural” frozen embryo transfers, which require less or no hormone supplementation.
The FET Cycle
The FET Cycle
A frozen embryo transfer can be performed in either stimulated or unstimulated cycles. During an unstimulated natural cycle, the embryo(s) are replaced when implantation is most likely.
Medicated Cycle
With a medicated cycle, you will need to take medication to go through the process of down-regulation. This temporarily shuts down your ovaries and prevents any eggs from being released.
You will have a scan on day two or three of your period and start taking medication to prepare your womb for embryo transfer. A second ultrasound scan on day eight or nine will be performed to check the thickness of your endometrium. Once it is of the appropriate thickness we can start the embryo thawing process and transfer.
Embryo Transfer
The embryo transfer is similar to a smear test. It may cause some minimal discomfort. The culture medium containing two or three embryos is loaded into a thin catheter with a syringe on the end.
The catheter carefully guides through the vagina and cervix and deposits the embryo(s) into the uterus.
