There are several fertility preservation options available for women:
1. Oocyte Cryopreservation: Commonly known as egg freezing, this involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, retrieving them, and freezing them for future use. 2. Embryo Cryopreservation: Similar to egg freezing, but the eggs are fertilized with sperm before freezing, resulting in embryos that can be implanted later. 3. Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation: A surgical procedure where ovarian tissue is removed, frozen, and transplanted back into the patient after treatment. 4. Ovarian Suppression: Medications like GnRH agonists are used to suppress ovarian function during chemotherapy to protect ovarian follicles. 5. In Vitro Maturation (IVM): Immature eggs are retrieved and matured in the lab before being frozen.
