Egg Freezing
Egg freezing, also called oocyte cryopreservation, is a form of assisted reproductive technology (ART). Eggs are retrieved from a woman’s ovaries and are frozen for later use.
When a woman is ready to have a child, the eggs are thawed, fertilized with sperm in a lab, and subsequently implanted as an embryo in the uterus. This procedure can improve the chances of conceiving later in life, though it does not guarantee a pregnancy.
Why Egg freezing?
It allows Flexibility individuals to have children in later stages of life, thus have pregnancy later although using their younger and healthier eggs.
Medical reasons: In certain cases, where one has to undergo treatments like chemotherapy or radiation therapy that could impact the ability to have children, this provides an option to preserve fertility before.
