Fertility issues are not always about having a baby right now. Many women would like more information about their chance for future parenthood for other reasons, including health factors, employment risks, or not having found the right partner yet. Because of this, a number of our patients turn to cryopreservation (or freezing) of eggs or sperm.

Our specialists can help you understand cryopreservation techniques and explain how they can help you preserve your chance for future parenthood. Based on our experience, we have found that there are several reasons that sperm or egg freezing might be necessary, including:

• Testicular or prostate surgery, including vasectomy
• Leaving for military service
• Before chemotherapy or radiation
• Employed in occupations that put fertility at risk
• Haven’t found the right partner yet
• Timing not right for parenthood now

If any of these are among your concerns, please call us to discuss your options.
