KUALA TERENGGANU (Bernama): A baby boy, the product of a Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) procedure using an embryo frozen for six years, was born at Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah (HSNZ) here on Tuesday (Oct 8), creating historic success for the hospital's In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) efforts.

The test-tube baby weighing 3.34 kg was a "gift from God", said proud mother Noor'adn Muhammad, 38, who told reporters she and her husband, Mohd Yuhairi Haniff Yoon, 37, had waited for 13 years to have their first child.
