Oocyte Cryopreservation

Oocyte cryopreservation, or egg freezing, is a process where a woman’s eggs are extracted, frozen, and stored for future use. This is often considered by women who want to delay motherhood for personal, medical, or career reasons. The frozen eggs can later be thawed and fertilized with sperm to help achieve pregnancy. This technique provides options for women facing age-related fertility decline or those undergoing medical treatments that might affect their fertility, ensuring that they have a chance to conceive later in life when they are ready.
