Fertility preservation

Life moves in different directions and at different speeds. Sometimes future plans are clear — sometimes not at all. Fertility-preserving treatments can give you more time, more choices, and greater peace of mind as you consider becoming a parent at some point in the future.

What is fertility preservation and who is it for?

What does fertility preservation involve?

Who can benefit from fertility preservation?

Medical reasons

One of the most common reasons is illness or treatment that may damage the ovaries, testicles, or reproductive cells. By freezing eggs or sperm in advance, the possibility of having children using one’s own genetic material can be preserved.

This may be relevant, for example, in cases of:

  • cancer treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation
  • surgeries that affect the ovaries or testicles
  • an increased risk of early menopause, especially if it runs in the family
  • hormone-related conditions or treatments that may impact fertility

Life circumstances and future plans

Many people choose to freeze eggs or sperm when starting a family is postponed due to:

For people born with ovaries, age plays a particularly important role: the number and quality of eggs gradually decline, and after the age of 35 this decline accelerates.

The younger the eggs are at the time of freezing, the better the outcomes in future treatments.

  • studies
  • career
  • relationships or life situations that are not yet settled
  • a desire to give themselves more options in the future

Examples of people who may benefit from fertility preservation

  • people at risk of early menopause
  • people who want to wait before starting a family
  • transgender individuals prior to hormone therapy or gender-affirming care
  • people with medical conditions that may affect fertility
