Fertility PreservationFertility preservation allows individuals or couples to preserve their ability to have children in the future.

• Egg/ Sperm Freezing

Individuals or couples can freeze their eggs or sperm if they feel that they are not yet ready to start a family. Egg freezing allows a woman to become pregnant with her own eggs. The procedure involves thawing previously frozen eggs for later use.Likewise, men can have their sperm frozen to be used later. Sperm freezing is one of the most common ways to preserve male fertility and many men opt for this when they are ready for parenthood.

• Preserving Options for Cancer Patients

Cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation or surgery may reduce fertility in both men and women. Potential infertility will also depend on factors like age, type of cancer, chemo drugs and the location of radiation.For women, radiation to the pelvic region can affect the ovaries, destroying eggs and triggering early menopause. For men chemotherapy can affect how slowly sperm production returns to normal. In some cases, sperm production may be permanently compromised.Such patients may opt for having their eggs and sperm frozen before cancer treatment starts.

• Delaying Parenthood with Egg Freezing

Healthy women who wish to delay parenthood until later can also have their eggs frozen. Eggs produced at a younger age are healthier and of better quality than those produced in advanced age. Preserving their eggs allows them to use the healthier eggs for future pregnancies.
