Fertility Preservation: Options for Individuals Facing Cancer Treatment or Other Medical Challenges

Preserving Your Fertility for Future Family Building

The field of reproductive medicine has made significant strides in providing fertility preservation options for individuals facing cancer treatment or other medical challenges. At Palm Beach Fertility Center, we understand the importance of family-building dreams, and we are committed to offering comprehensive fertility preservation services.

The Importance of Fertility Preservation

Fertility preservation is a crucial aspect of healthcare for individuals diagnosed with medical conditions that may affect their fertility. Young individuals affected by these diseases are often confronted with a life-altering diagnosis and the potential impact on future reproductive health. The ability to have biological children in the future can be an important consideration, and as such, discussing fertility preservation and endocrine health becomes an integral part of a patient’s individual needs when navigating such conditions.

Fertility Preservation Options

There are several fertility preservation options available for both men and women. Depending on your situation, you may wish to discuss any of the following with a fertility specialist:

• Embryo Cryopreservation: This involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved and fertilized in a laboratory. The resulting embryos are frozen and stored for future use.
• Egg Freezing (Oocyte Cryopreservation): This process is similar to embryo freezing, but the eggs are frozen without being fertilized.
• Sperm Banking: For men, sperm can be collected and frozen for future use.
