Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) is a cutting-edge reproductive technology used during the in vitro fertilization (IVF) process to assess embryos for genetic abnormalities before they are transferred to the uterus. PGT enables the selection of embryos that are free from specific genetic disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, or aneuploidies, increasing the likelihood of a successful pregnancy and reducing the risk of genetic diseases in offspring.

When is Fertility Preservation Done?

Fertility Preservation can be recommended by the fertility specialist when chances of conceiving in the future are less; or it can be selected by couples/ individuals when they want to delay parenthood.

When a couple undergo an IVF Treatment, the fertility centre gives them an option to preserve one or more of the embryos, which can be used, if the couple wants to conceive again in future.
Individuals facing medical treatments that may affect fertility, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or surgery involving reproductive organs (e.g., removal of ovaries or testes), may be advised to consider fertility preservation. These treatments can damage eggs, sperm, or reproductive organs, leading to infertility or reduced fertility.
Some individuals may choose to undergo fertility preservation for elective reasons, such as delaying parenthood due to personal or career goals. This is particularly common among women who wish to preserve their fertility as they age.
In some cases of genetic diseases, the chances of decline in fertility with time are very high. In such cases, couple may decided for fertility preservation before sharp decline in fertility

TYPES OF FERTILITY PRESERVATION

Advancements in cryobiology have helped evolve the concept of fertility preservation. Oocytes, sperms, embryos and testicular tissue can be cryopreserved and can later be used for conception

Oocyte Vitrification

For females, eggs are retrieved through a process called ovarian stimulation, then frozen for future use.

Semen Freezing

For males, sperm can be collected and frozen for later use in assisted reproductive techniques such as in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Embryo Cryo-Preservation

For couples or individuals undergoing fertility treatments such as IVF, embryos created during the treatment can be cryopreserved for future use.

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation

In some cases, particularly for prepubertal girls or women who cannot undergo ovarian stimulation, ovarian tissue containing immature eggs may be removed and frozenSemen Freezing

FAQ's

Fertility preservation refers to the process of protecting or maintaining a person's fertility so that they have the option to have children in the future. This can involve various techniques and procedures to preserve eggs, sperm, embryos, or reproductive tissue.
Fertility preservation may benefit individuals facing circumstances that could compromise their fertility, such as cancer treatment, autoimmune diseases, elective reasons (e.g., delaying parenthood), gender confirmation therapy, genetic conditions, military deployment, or high-risk occupations.
Common methods of fertility preservation include sperm cryopreservation, egg cryopreservation (oocyte cryopreservation), embryo cryopreservation, and ovarian tissue cryopreservation. The most suitable method depends on factors such as the individual's age, medical history, and treatment timeline.
Egg freezing, or oocyte cryopreservation, involves stimulating the ovaries with hormone injections to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved through a minimally invasive procedure called egg retrieval. The retrieved eggs are then frozen (cryopreserved) for future use.
Sperm banking, or sperm cryopreservation, involves collecting and freezing semen samples from males. The collected sperm samples are frozen and stored in a cryogenic storage facility (cryobank) until they are needed for fertility treatment.
Coverage for fertility preservation varies depending on factors such as the individual's insurance plan, reason for preservation, and medical necessity. Some insurance plans may cover fertility preservation for medical reasons, while others may not provide coverage or may offer limited coverage.
While fertility preservation techniques have advanced significantly in recent years, there are no guarantees of success. The success of fertility preservation depends on various factors, including the individual's age, reproductive health, and the quality of the preserved reproductive material.
The storage duration for frozen eggs, sperm, or embryos varies depending on local regulations and the policies of the cryobank or fertility clinic. In many cases, frozen reproductive material can be stored for several years, and extensions may be available in certain circumstances.
Fertility preservation procedures such as ovarian stimulation or egg retrieval carry potential risks and side effects, including ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), discomfort, and complications related to the retrieval procedure. It's important for individuals to discuss the risks and benefits with their healthcare provider.
Individuals interested in fertility preservation should schedule a consultation with a fertility specialist or reproductive endocrinologist. During the consultation, the specialist can provide personalized information, answer questions, and discuss the most suitable options based on the individual's circumstances and goals.
