Case Summary

  • Fertility preservation is a medical and laboratory technique employed to protect and store reproductive cells or tissues (eggs, sperm, embryos, or gonadal tissues) for future use, enabling individuals to have biological children when natural fertility is threatened by medical, surgical, or social factors. It is recommended for women at risk of ovarian function loss due to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, ovarian surgery, autoimmune diseases, genetic conditions, or social reasons like delaying childbearing. Men may require it due to medical conditions impairing spermatogenesis (chemotherapy, surgery, chronic illness, trauma) or non-medical reasons (vasectomy, gender-affirming therapy).
