Cryopreservation

Pause your biological clock simply by freezing time! This method is aimed at women who wish to preserve their fertility for the future, wanting to delay having children in order to pursue educational, professional, or other personal goals.

It is also applied to women diagnosed with cancer (offering the opportunity to preserve their fertility before undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy).

Since fertility is known to decline with age, egg freezing at a younger reproductive age will ensure higher success rates for achieving pregnancy later on. The ideal age for this is considered to be between 30–36 years old.

The egg collection process for freezing is the same as that used in in vitro fertilization (IVF). That is, the patient undergoes ovarian stimulation using hormonal medications. The eggs that are collected are stored at -196°C using the modern vitrification method, without any deterioration in quality over time.
