Fertility Preservation: Plan Parenthood on Your Terms
Thanks to advances in assisted reproduction, you can now preserve your fertility for the future. Whether due to medical reasons, life planning, or upcoming cancer treatment, vitrification offers a safe and reliable way to freeze your eggs, sperm, embryos, or ovarian tissue for later use.
Vitrification: Fast and Gentle Freezing
Vitrification is the most advanced cryopreservation technique, rapidly freezing reproductive cells at -196 degrees C using cryoprotective agents. Unlike older slow-freezing methods, vitrification prevents the formation of ice crystals, maintaining maximum cell viability.
Benefits of vitrification:
- Up to 95% survival rate after thawing
- Minimal cellular damage
- Suitable for eggs, sperm, and embryos
- Clinically proven and widely used in modern IVF
Egg Freezing: A Choice for Future Motherhood
Egg freezing is an ideal option for women who:
- Are undergoing oncological treatments (e.g., chemotherapy)
- Wish to delay motherhood for personal or career reasons (social freezing)
- Have a reduced ovarian reserve or early signs of declining fertility
The procedure is safe and effective. Frozen eggs can be stored for many years and used later during an IVF cycle.
Sperm Freezing: Long-Term Fertility Protection
Sperm vitrification is a reliable option for:
- Men undergoing cancer treatment or other serious therapies
- Couples where sperm cannot be collected on the day of egg retrieval
- Sperm donors or men who wish to preserve fertility for the future
Thawed sperm samples retain fertility potential as close as fresh samples.
Embryo Freezing: Preserve Unused Embryos for Future Cycles
Embryo vitrification is commonly used:
- To preserve extra embryos from the current IVF cycle
- In cases of ovarian hyperstimulation risk
- When the uterine lining is not optimal for transfer
- If the embryo transfer must be postponed due to health reasons
Frozen embryos can be used later in a frozen embryo transfer (FET), which is less physically demanding than a full IVF cycle.
