Egg/Sperm Cryopreservation
WHAT IS EGG / SPERM CRYOPRESERVATION
Egg and Sperm Cryopreservation is a fertility preservation technique where eggs or sperm are frozen and stored for future use. This allows individuals or couples to plan pregnancy at a later stage without compromising fertility potential.
At Freya Fertility, we use advanced vitrification technology to ensure high survival rates of frozen eggs and sperm, maintaining their quality for future IVF or fertility treatments.
Cryopreservation can be beneficial for patients who:
- Want to delay parenthood for personal or professional reasons
- Are undergoing cancer treatment (chemotherapy/radiation)
- Have low ovarian reserve or declining fertility
- Wish to preserve fertility before medical procedures
WHAT IS CRYOPRESERVATION?
