Several options are available for preserving fertility in cancer patients. These include:
1. Cryopreservation of Embryos: This involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, retrieving the eggs, fertilizing them with sperm, and freezing the resulting embryos for future use. 2. Egg Freezing: Similar to embryo freezing, but the eggs are frozen unfertilized. 3. Sperm Banking: Men can store sperm samples before undergoing cancer treatment. 4. Ovarian Tissue Freezing: A less common method where ovarian tissue is surgically removed and frozen for future re-implantation.
