Egg Freezing

Freeze your eggs today for the family you want to build tomorrow

Cryo-vitrification, or “egg freezing” has revolutionized women’s ability to have children later in life. The flash-freezing technique allows unfertilized female eggs to be frozen quickly enough without damage to the cell. This allows us to freeze and later thaw the eggs for use in IVF cycles. We are very proud to be on the forefront of being able to offer women new options in fertility preservation!

Why Freeze Your Eggs?

Many women are delaying pregnancy until their late thirties and early forties.  Cryo-vitrification gives women the chance to freeze their eggs while younger, preserve their fertility, and reduce the chances of miscarriage and birth defects associated with “egg age.”

Is Egg Freezing An Option For Me?

Besides women wanting to preserve the ability to have biological children later in life, freezing eggs is a great option for patients who may be soon undergoing radiation therapy, chemo, or surgery. This is because they can all cause infertility by destroying a woman’s eggs. Depending on the type treatment, egg freezing may be an option that gives a woman facing cancer the opportunity to preserve her fertility before she undergoes therapy.
