What is sperm freezing?
Sperm freezing, also known as “sperm banking” is a way of cryopreserving donated sperm for future use in reproduction by means of IVF. Who can benefit from sperm freezing? Couples may wish to freeze sperm for their own reproductive purposes, as a back-up in case of future change in the quality of the sperm. A man receiving medical treatment or undergoing a surgical operation that will or may affect his fertility might consider cryopreserving his sperm for future use. Men who will have their sperm removed surgically by undergoing PESA, MESA or TESE procedures can have their sperm cryopreserved. How is sperm frozen? Similar to the process of embryo freezing, sperm is also analyzed, divided into smaller batches and then transferred into vials. The sperm is combined with a cryoprotectant fluid and gradually frozen in liquid nitrogen vapor. After about 1 hour, they are stored in liquid nitrogen containers for long term storage. How is sperm thawed? After the first 48 hours, a specimen of sperm is thawed to test how well it survived the freeze. At this time, the lab will be able to determine which vials can be used for insemination, at which point the selected sperm will be thawed at room temperature and by diluting with water until nothing remains of the cryoprotective fluid. The thawing process of frozen sperm is similar to that of frozen embryos. Coping with infertility: We understand that anticipating the results of IVF can be grueling and stressful on couples, and the possibility of an unsuccessful outcome can be overwhelming. In spite of this, it is important that couples maintain a healthy and clear psyche. Plenty of rest and avoiding stress are highly recommended before, during and after your trip. Keep in mind that you are traveling, which can add more stress on the body. Drink lots of water and try to obtain ample Vitamin D from the sun and fresh air to conquer jetlag. Choose Visit and Care: Why should you go through the hassle of dealing with several different parties to make reservations and appointments with a doctor when we can handle all of that for you without it costing you a penny more than what you would pay if you were to do everything yourself directly.
