Who Are Good Candidates
For Freezing Eggs?

This assisted conception option is a savior for some couples.

Cancer Treatment

If you are undergoing cancer treatment for example, your treatment may affect your fertility and even the quality of your eggs.
For this reason, many women who haven't had a family yet and wish to, but need cancer treatment now, will preserve their eggs for later for future IVF.

Religious Or Ethical Reasons

Perhaps your religion or your ethical reasoning opposes freezing of an embryo (when the egg has been fertilized by a sperm). In this case, women or couples like yourself will choose to freeze an egg instead.

All The Single Ladies!

Maybe you are single, know you want a baby, but haven't found your life partner, or a person you are comfortable conceiving a baby to yet? Some women with known fertility problems will particularly freeze their eggs as a precaution.
Also, women who are older and this situation and are aware of their declining fertility with age may want to freeze eggs for later. This type of demand is on the rise as our society changes.

What Is The Procedure?

Your ovaries are stimulated with fertility drugs to help mature your follicles and produce more than one egg at ovulation.
The eggs are removed through minor surgery once they are mature and then frozen and stored away.
Many fertility clinics do this procedure now, so if you want to know more, contact your local fertility clinic.According to scientific results at the 2007 Fertility Society Association Conference there is about a 60% fertilization rate and a 30% pregnancy success rate from each batch of frozen eggs.
