Egg freezing is a method that women who think become a mother in the future but don’t want to give birth at the moment can apply. The eggs collected from the ovary are stored for freezing and can be thawed and used at any time. One of the obstacles to having children is the decrease in ovarian reserve and quality of women, which decreases with age. Scientific studies and current treatment results reveal that the success of having children after the age of 40 has decreased significantly in women. Also, when it is added to the diagnosis of low ovarian reserve at early ages or early menopause risk for many reasons, many women experience anxiety about not having children in the future. Thanks to the egg freezing process, women can freeze their eggs without losing their reproductive abilities and have children by using these eggs in the future.
What is Fertility & IVF?
Infertility is the absence of pregnancy despite 1 year of unprotected intercourse. In the problem of inability to have a child which is seen in about 15% of couples, only 20% of male factors, 30% of both male&female factors and only female factors are observed with a rate of 40%. In 10% of couples, there is an unexplained infertility. In the treatment of infertility, simple and causal treatments are preferred initially. If the problem can be detected, it is aimed to ensure pregnancy in the couple's home by eliminating correctable causes such as drug therapy, varicocele surgery, treatment of canal obstructions. With these treatments, even if the pregnancy cannot be achieved, the condition of the man is partially improved and it is ensured that he can benefit from assisted reproductive techniques with higher success. In other words, with the higher number and quality of the sperm obtained, the success of applications such as in vitro fertilization or vaccination is tried to be increased. While suitable couples may benefit from the method of leaving the male's sperm prepared in the laboratory to the female uterus (vaccination = insemination) by the gynecologist, microinjection = in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be required as a last resort for those with more severe conditions.
