In the journey towards parenthood, many factors can influence an individual or couple's ability to conceive. For those facing fertility challenges due to medical treatments, age, or other reasons, fertility preservation offers a glimmer of hope. Dr Poonam Goyal, a leading fertility specialist in Delhi, is dedicated to providing top-notch fertility preservation services, including egg, sperm, and embryo freezing, to help individuals preserve their fertility and realise their dreams of starting a family.
What is Fertility preservation?
Fertility preservation refers to the process of preserving eggs, sperm, or embryos for future use in assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI). It is commonly utilized by individuals or couples who wish to retain their reproductive options for later in life due to various reasons, including medical treatments that may impact fertility, advancing age, or personal circumstances. Fertility preservation techniques involve the freezing (cryopreservation) of gametes (eggs or sperm) or embryos, allowing individuals to defer parenthood until a later time when they are ready to conceive.
The Process of Fertility Preservation
- Consultation: Patients first have a thorough consultation with Dr Poonam Goyal to talk over their medical history, desired outcomes for their fertility, and available treatments. Dr. Goyal conducts a thorough evaluation to determine the most suitable fertility preservation method for each individual.
- Stimulation and Retrieval:
For egg freezing, the patient undergoes ovarian stimulation using hormone injections to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Once the eggs reach maturity, they are retrieved using a minimally invasive procedure called transvaginal ultrasound-guided follicle aspiration. For sperm freezing, the patient provides a semen sample, which is then processed and frozen for future use. For embryo freezing, eggs are retrieved from the patient or a donor, fertilized with sperm in the laboratory, and the resulting embryos are frozen.
- Freezing:
The retrieved eggs, sperm, or embryos are carefully frozen using state-of-the-art cryopreservation techniques. This process involves slowly cooling the cells to very low temperatures, effectively halting their biological activity and preserving them for future use.
- Storage:
The frozen eggs, sperm, or embryos are then stored in specialised cryogenic tanks at Dr Poonam Goyal's state-of-the-art fertility clinic. These tanks are designed to maintain a constant ultra-low temperature, ensuring the long-term preservation of the specimens.
Benefits of Fertility Preservation
- Preserve Fertility: Fertility preservation allows individuals to preserve their reproductive potential, providing peace of mind for those facing medical treatments that may affect fertility or for those who wish to delay childbearing for personal or professional reasons.
- Empowerment:
Fertility preservation empowers individuals to take control of their reproductive health and make informed decisions about their future family planning options.
- Flexibility:
By freezing eggs, sperm, or embryos, individuals gain flexibility in their family planning timeline, allowing them to pursue educational, career, or personal goals without compromising their ability to have biological children later in life.
- Peace of Mind:
Knowing that their reproductive options are preserved can alleviate anxiety and stress for individuals facing medical treatments or other life circumstances that may impact fertility.
