Egg Freezing and Storage

Egg freezing and storage

Egg Freezing can be helpful to you for a variety of different reasons. It involves mature eggs being developed and removed using standard IVF techniques. Egg Freezing can be helpful for:

• Individuals who wish to have children at a later date. They are aware that fertility declines with age and are choosing to undergo IVF treatment sooner, storing their eggs for the future.
• Those with cancer, as chemotherapy and radiation treatment can have a harmful effect on fertility, rendering many of these patients menopausal.
• Athletes who do not wish to choose over their career or family ambitions.
• Women who are at risk of early menopause or have a genetic disorder that could limit fertility (e.g. Turner syndrome).
• Individuals or couples who, for religious or ethical reasons, are opposed to freezing embryos that result from IVF treatments and are more comfortable with storing unfertilised eggs instead.
• Couples who have no sperm retrievable on the day of their egg collection.

Tiarna has partnered with Chill Egg Freeze Australia- a dedicated women’s egg freezing service.

Chill is specifically for women who want to keep going on whatever path they are on – career, study, medical treatment or other – yet preserve their fertility through freezing some of their eggs until they are ready to consider a family and start the next chapter of their life.
