🌟 Introduction
With growing career goals, delayed marriage, medical conditions, or cancer treatments, many individuals today are choosing to preserve their fertility for future parenthood. Egg freezing and sperm freezing are highly effective fertility preservation methods.
At Shilpa Hospital Yemmiganur, we offer world-class fertility freezing services with expert care, advanced cryopreservation labs, and complete confidentiality.
🥚 What is Egg Freezing?
Egg freezing, also called oocyte cryopreservation, is a procedure where a woman’s healthy, mature eggs are collected, frozen, and stored for future use. These eggs can be thawed later, fertilized, and used to achieve pregnancy through IVF.
✅ When to Consider Egg Freezing:
- Women who want to delay childbearing
- Women undergoing chemotherapy or radiation
- Women with a family history of early menopause
- Those with low ovarian reserve at a young age
- For personal or professional reasons (fertility planning)
🧪 What is Sperm Freezing?
Sperm freezing, also known as semen cryopreservation, is a process of collecting, freezing, and storing sperm cells. It is a safe, effective, and commonly used method for men who want to preserve their ability to father a child in the future.
✅ When to Consider Sperm Freezing:
- Before cancer treatment or surgery
- Low sperm count or declining fertility
- Difficulty ejaculating on treatment day (IVF/IUI)
- Vasectomy planning
- Before military deployment or long travel
- Gender transition procedures
At Shilpa Hospital Yemmiganur, we offer both short-term and long-term sperm and egg storage solutions under strict medical and privacy protocols.
🩺 Step-by-Step Process
🔹 Egg Freezing Process:
- Ovarian Stimulation
Fertility hormones are given to produce multiple eggs. - Monitoring & Retrieval
Eggs are monitored by ultrasound. Once mature, they are retrieved under mild anesthesia. - Freezing
The eggs are frozen using a method called vitrification – a rapid freezing process that prevents ice crystal formation. - Storage
Eggs are stored in liquid nitrogen tanks at sub-zero temperatures until needed.
🔹 Sperm Freezing Process:
- Semen Collection
A semen sample is collected through masturbation or minor procedure. - Analysis & Processing
The sample is tested, and healthy sperm are separated for freezing. - Cryopreservation
Sperm are mixed with a protective solution and frozen in liquid nitrogen. - Storage
Stored securely and can be used anytime in future for IUI or IVF.
