Fertility Preservation Options Before Treatment

We offer expedited fertility preservation services, ensuring you have the best chance of parenthood after treatment.

Egg Freezing

Egg freezing allows you to preserve unfertilized eggs before cancer treatment begins. The process involves stimulating the ovaries with medication, retrieving the mature eggs, and freezing for future use. When you’re ready to conceive, the eggs can be thawed, fertilized, and implanted through IVF.

Embryo Freezing

If you have a partner or are open to using donor sperm, embryo freezing is another effective option. This process follows the same steps as egg freezing, but the eggs are fertilized with sperm before being frozen. Frozen embryos can be stored indefinitely and used in IVF when you're ready to pursue pregnancy.

Sperm Freezing

Sperm freezing is a simple and effective way to preserve fertility before cancer treatment. A semen sample is collected, processed, and stored in a secure facility for future use in intrauterine insemination (IUI) or IVF.

Donor Eggs

Donor eggs are fertilized with the intended father’s sperm (or donor sperm). The resulting embryos are then transferred to the intended mother’s uterus (or a surrogate’s). This option offers a path to parenthood for individuals at risk of infertility due to cancer treatments, bypassing the need for the intended mother’s eggs.

Gestational Surrogacy

Using IVF, an embryo—created from the intended parents’ or donors’ egg and sperm—is carried by a surrogate, allowing individuals to have a child with their own genetic material while ensuring their health is not at risk. This option provides a way to build a family even when carrying a pregnancy is not safe or possible.

Common Cancer Fertility Support FAQs

Cancer treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery can affect fertility by damaging reproductive organs or altering hormone levels. We offer several fertility preservation options, including egg freezing, sperm banking, embryo freezing, and ovarian tissue freezing. These methods have a good track record of success, especially when completed before treatment. Our specialists will help you determine the best option based on your diagnosis and treatment plan.

It’s best to start as early as possible. The first step is scheduling a consultation with one of our fertility specialists. We’ll review your medical history, discuss preservation options, and create a personalized plan that aligns with your cancer treatment timeline. In many cases, fertility preservation can be completed within two weeks.

The cost varies depending on the services needed, such as stimulation cycles and storage fees. Many insurance providers offer partial coverage for medical fertility preservation, while others may not. We’ll help you navigate your options and connect you with financial assistance programs if needed.

It’s still possible, although options may be more limited depending on how much treatment has been completed. It’s best to consult with a specialist as soon as possible to explore available options.
