Fertility Preservation

Fertility Preservation

Fertility preservation seeks to secure the fertility of people and assist in achieving pregnancy for a long period of time. It is the process of saving or protecting sperm, eggs, embryos or reproductive tissue of a person so that they can use them to have their own biological children in the future.

What Are The Different Fertility Preservation Options Available?

Fertility preservation also known as Cryopreservation is of mainly five kinds – sperm freezing, egg freezing, embryo freezing, testicular tissue freezing and ovarian tissue freezing.

Sperm Freezing: Sperm freezing is the best technique for preserving a man’s fertility thus avoiding the need for donor sperm in later years.

Egg Freezing: Egg freezing is a technique for protecting a woman’s fertility so that she can attempt and have kids in the future.

Embryo Freezing: Couples having good embryos developed but are not ready to have a child have the choice of freezing them to use later or they can also donate it to someone.

Testicular Tissue Freezing: Testicular tissue freezing is a different method to protect the fertility of men who are unable to produce quality sperm in their discharge (azoospermia).

Ovarian Tissue Solidifying: Ovarian tissue freezing is a fertility protection alternative for women who can’t freeze their eggs and for certain young girls who haven’t begun ovulating.
