Egg and Sperm Freezing is an effective way for women and men to preserve their fertility. Individuals may want to consider Egg or Sperm Freezing if they are considering delaying parenthood for a later stage in their life or if they are undergoing medical treatment and want to protect their fertility from any negative side effects of medication. Fakih IVF offers Egg and Sperm Freezing in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
The quality of a woman’s eggs, her ovarian reserve, diminishes with age while the reproductive organs maintain their ability to carry a pregnancy. The decrease in quality is relatively gradual until the age of 35, after which the rate increases. When egg quality decreases, the chance of pregnancy decreases and the risk of miscarriage and genetic abnormality increases. Egg Freezing offers you flexibility in delaying pregnancy for later in life and allows you to take control of your own biological clock.
What Are The Steps Involved In Egg Freezing?
On Day 2 of the Menstrual Cycle, fertility medications are prescribed to stimulate the growth of multiple follicles in the ovaries. Ultrasound scans and blood tests are used to monitor follicular growth and hormone levels. 36 to 40 hours before the schedule Egg Retrieval, an hCG “trigger” shot is given to induce maturation of the eggs within a scheduled timeframe.
Eggs are retrieved using a thin ultrasound-guided needle during a minor procedure under sedation and are then frozen for later use.
When you are ready for pregnancy, your eggs are thawed and fertilized using ICSI. If you are interested in freezing your eggs, contact Fakih IVF to book an appointment or ask any questions you may have.
Sperm Freezing is an effective way for men to store sperm for future use, particularly if they want to preserve their fertility while receiving any treatment that may damage sperm quality. Men may store their sperm from natural ejaculate, TESA or MicroTESE, even if they have reduced sperm parameters.
