Freezing sperm
Sperm freezing is a simple and safe method to preserve fertility. It can be done for medical purposes or for those who wish to postpone starting a family. There are several reasons why a man may choose to freeze his sperm, for example before a vasectomy or in case of a medical diagnosis such as testicular cancer. Our clinics can help you preserve and improve your chances of having children in the future.
What is Sperm Freezing
Certain medical conditions or treatments may involve or lead to a risk of reduced sperm production. Men who are about to undergo, for example, cancer treatment may experience long-term or permanent impairment of sperm production or ejaculation function. In such cases, we can offer sperm freezing. Later on, these can be used for insemination or in vitro fertilization. Examples of treatments that may reduce sperm function include chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The most common diseases where these treatments may be required are testicular cancer, malignant melanoma, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and leukemia.
Who is it for?
- Couples who cannot get pregnant on their own
- Single women or same-sex couples who wish to become parents
- Women with ovulation problems or damaged fallopian tubes
- Men with reduced sperm quality or low sperm count
- Couples with unexplained infertility
- People with genetic diseases who want to avoid passing them on
- Women of advanced age with decreased fertility
- Couples where the woman has endometriosis, PCOS, or other gynecological conditions
The sperm freezing process
Sperm are frozen, after which they will be stored in liquid nitrogen at minus 196 degrees. Freezing sperm is a safe way to preserve their fertility. However, in rare cases, sperm do not tolerate freezing, so there are never any guarantees that they can be used.
Our prices
An IVF treatment is an individual process. Therefore, it is also difficult to estimate the total cost of treatment leading to a pregnancy. Within the Livio group, we strive to maintain as consistent pricing as possible, but the varying conditions at different clinics may sometimes result in slight price differences from clinic to clinic. Please feel free to consult us, and we will guide you!
