In today’s modern society, fertility is becoming a growing issue among many men and women. Their lifestyle or any other genetic disorders can cause them to become infertile at a young age and unable to have children.
Some people might also wish to delay having children for the time being. Fertility preservation can come as an aid to people with these issues.
People concerned about their fertility or have other issues can choose to store their eggs (oocyte), sperm, embryo, and reproductive.
You can always seek fertility doctors’ advice for further steps.
Success
Sperm freezing
Healthy sperm is collected, tested, and frozen for future use
Sperm freezing is the most successful method for storing a man’s sperm who wish to preserve it for later use. Men with fertility issues or health problems can choose to freeze their sperm and use it later.
Before being stored, the collected sperm sample will be tested for any defects or infections that may spread to the child. The embryo developed from frozen sperm will be just as healthy as an embryo created using fresh sperm.
One of the advantages of sperm freezing is that all the sperm need not be thawed and used in one go. You can use them multiple times. The frozen sperm can also be donated to other people with fertility issues or same-sex female couples. This is called sperm banking.
Oocyte freezing
Mature, unfertilised eggs are retrieved from ovaries and frozen for future use
Oocyte (egg) cryopreservation is the method of freezing a woman’s egg for future use. Mature eggs are collected from the ovaries and stored under extremely cold temperatures. These unfertilised frozen eggs can be thawed and combined with sperm and implanted into the uterus in the future (IVF).
This method benefits women who are not ready to get pregnant but have concerns about fertility issues at a later age. Women will be given fertility drugs (ovulation induction) to make them ovulate so that multiple eggs can be retrieved in one go. Unlike embryo freezing, oocyte freezing does not need sperm since the eggs are stored before fertilisation
