Egg Preservation |
Until recently, it was
believed that female fertility remained fairly stable until around
the age of 35. New studies, however, have indicated that a women's
reproductive potential actually begins to decline in her late twenties
and drops dramatically after 35.

Every woman is born
with a finite number of eggs. Over time, however, these eggs lose
their ability to function properly.The resulting decline in reproductive
ability can make it difficult or impossible for a woman to get pregnant
at the point in her life when she feels ready to start a family.
Freezing healthy eggs and storing them for future fertilization
and implantation is one solution. However, with conventional freezing
technology, the process is inefficient in terms of egg survival
and pregnancy rate.
To improve the efficiency of egg freezing, the CHA team has developed
an innovative technique of flash freezing human eggs. This technique,
called vitirification, is currently only available at our Center.
Although it is a new process, CHA's vitirification technique has
demonstrated very promising advantages. First and foremost, the
successful pregnancy rate is far above that of the conventional
method of slow freezing.
CHA's advancements in egg freezing offers patients more "convenience"
and "options" in their fertility treatments.
