Embryo and Sperm Cryopreservation |
| Cryopreservation, or
freezing, of embryos is performed so that an IVF patient who doesn't
get pregnant with the fresh cycle, or wants to have another child
years later, can have available embryos without going through the
ovulation induction process again. Freezing sperm allows men who are
undergoing cancer treatment or other therapies that can result |
| in sterility to father
their own biological children at a future time. Frozen sperm can remain
viable almost indefinitely if properly stored. |
