How to Preserve Fertility during Cancer Treatment

There are many cancer treatments that increases the risk of infertility. The best way is to considering fertility preservation before you begin cancer treatment. Here are some of the fertility preservation options available given by the experts:

For women

You can have a variety of fertility preservation choices before starting with your cancer treatment. 

  • Embryo Cryopreservation: in this procedure, your eggs will be retrieved, fertilised and freeze until transplantation in later period. The survival chances are up to 90% during freezing.

  • Egg Freezing or Oocyte Cryopreservation: in this procedure, your unfertilised eggs will be extracted from the ovaries and freeze for future use.

  • Radiation Shielding: In this procedure, you can cover the sensitive area with a small shield to protect reproductive organs.

  • Ovarian Transposition: in this procedure, ovaries are relocated within the pelvis to make them avoid the radiation field. Shielding during radiation treatment always does not provide protection and hence repositioning of ovaries is a better way to conceive later.

  • Surgical Removal of the Cervix: in this, a large cone-shaped piece of the cervix from your body will be removed to treat early-stage cervical cancer. TH removal of cervix can be done partly or entirely.

Men

Testicular damage is the leading cause of infertility in men, especially the ones who undergo cancer treatments. Here are some measures for men to help reserving their fertility before the treatment:

  • Sperm Cryopreservation: your sperms are freeze and preserved for future usage. Deep freezing help the sample to survive for an extended period. 

  • Radiation Shielding: like women, men can also choose this while undergoing radiation therapy. Use a shield to protect your gonads from radiation therapy infused damages.

Sarvodaya Hospital at Faridabad offers best cancer treatments facilities along with a fully equipped fertility unit. Speak to the specialist about your fertility concerns before going under chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
