Oocyte/ Egg Freezing

Oocyte freezing, also known as egg freezing, is a revolutionary fertility preservation technique offered at our clinic, providing individuals with the opportunity to preserve their reproductive potential for the future. Whether due to medical reasons, personal circumstances, or career goals, oocyte freezing empowers individuals to take control of their fertility journey.

Oocyte/ Egg Freezing

The process of oocyte freezing begins with ovarian stimulation, where fertility medications are administered to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. These eggs are then carefully retrieved under ultrasound guidance in a minimally invasive procedure. Once retrieved, the mature eggs are cryopreserved using advanced vitrification techniques, which rapidly freeze the eggs to preserve their viability.

Oocyte freezing offers a proactive approach to family planning, allowing individuals to preserve their eggs at a time when they are most fertile and to pursue parenthood when the time is right. It is particularly beneficial for women who wish to delay childbearing for personal or professional reasons, as well as those facing medical treatments that may impact fertility, such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

At our clinic, we understand the importance of personalised care and support throughout the oocyte freezing process. Our experienced team of fertility specialists guides patients through every step of the journey, from initial consultation to egg retrieval and cryopreservation. We prioritise patient comfort, safety, and confidentiality, ensuring that each individual receives the highest standard of care.

If you're considering oocyte freezing as a fertility preservation option, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our experts. Together, we can discuss your unique circumstances and develop a personalised plan to help safeguard your reproductive future. With oocyte freezing, you can embark on your fertility journey with confidence, knowing that you have taken proactive steps to preserve your options for tomorrow.

Considering Egg Freezing: A Strategic Approach to Reproductive Planning

Understanding Egg Freezing: A Path to Future Fertility

Egg freezing, scientifically known as mature oocyte cryopreservation, offers women a proactive strategy for preserving their reproductive potential. This process involves the cryogenic preservation of unfertilised eggs, providing a safeguard for future conception endeavors.

The Purpose Behind Egg Freezing

Egg freezing presents a viable option for women who wish to defer childbearing while safeguarding their fertility. Whether pursuing personal or medical reasons, this technique empowers women to take control of their reproductive timeline without compromising future possibilities.

Indications for Egg Freezing

Women may consider egg freezing under various circumstances, including:

  • Managing underlying fertility concerns.
  • Undergoing medical treatments that may impact fertility.
  • Pursuing assisted reproductive techniques like IVF.
  • Proactively preserving fertility at a younger age.

Advantages of Egg Freezing

The benefits of egg freezing extend beyond immediate reproductive concerns, offering:

  • Expanded reproductive choices for women.
  • Enhanced autonomy in family planning decisions.
  • Empowerment through proactive reproductive healthcare.

Navigating the Egg Retrieval Process

Egg retrieval is typically performed under sedation in a medical setting. Common techniques involve transvaginal ultrasound aspiration, where specialised tools are used to extract eggs from ovarian follicles. While discomfort and temporary enlargement of ovaries are common post-procedure, most women resume normal activities within a few weeks.

Embarking on the Journey

Should egg freezing resonate with your reproductive goals, initiating a dialogue with a healthcare provider is the crucial first step. Through comprehensive consultation, individuals gain insights into the egg freezing process, enabling informed decisions aligned with their unique needs and reproductive history.

Our Treatments

1

Semen Analysis

If you and your partner are having trouble falling pregnant, one of the first tests you doctor will request for is a semen analysis.

2

Sperm DNA Fragmentation

This test assesses the quality of sperm DNA, identifying potential sperm damage that may impact fertility and the success of fertility treatments like IVF and ICSI.

3

Oxidative Stress

Oxidative stress occurs when there's an imbalance between harmful free radicals and protective antioxidants. In male fertility, oxidative stress can harm sperm, leading to decreased fertility.

4

TESA

This technique is particularly beneficial for men who have difficulty producing sperm or have obstructive azoospermia, a condition where sperm is produced but cannot reach the semen due to blockages.

5

Sperm Freezing

At our fertility clinic, we offer semen freezing services as a means to preserve fertility for individuals or couples facing various life circumstances.

6

Semen Decontamination

The presence of pathogens in semen can compromise the outcome of assisted reproductive treatment, together with the possibility of the female partner or offspring becoming infected.

7

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment offered at our clinic, designed to enhance the chances of conception for individuals or couples experiencing difficulties in getting pregnant.

8

Egg Harvesting & Freezing

Oocyte freezing, also known as egg freezing, is a revolutionary fertility preservation technique offered at our clinic, providing individuals with the opportunity to preserve their reproductive potential for the future.

9
