Testicular Tissue Freezing
 | While mature men can preserve fertility by sperm freezing, the only option in male children is testicular tissue freezing. At IFP, we offer this experimental option for children undergoing chemotherapy. |
Infertility Treatments after Cancer
 | Cancer patients who developed infertility after cancer have different needs compared to other infertile women. At IFP, we offer innovative infertility treatments geared towards cancer survivors. |
Egg Freezing
 | Oocyte freezing has come a long way. Our research shows that current success rates have approached to that of standard IVF procedures. When fertility is under threat in single women and adolescents, this is a useful strategy to preserve fertility. |
Ovarian Cryopreservation
 | This technique does not require ovarian stimulation and can be performed in children and adults with short notice. IFP's experience is unmatched, as Dr Oktay performed the first procedures in the world. |
Breast Cancer and IVF
 | Eggs are harvested for safekeeping in advance of cancer treatments, and reimplanted in an IVF procedure when the patient's cancer is in remission. |
Fertility Preservation in Children
 | Chemotherapy treatments and other conditions such as Turner's and galactosemia can threaten the future fertility of children. |
Fertility Preservation for Children
Speaker: Dr. Kutluk Oktay
Length: 25 seconds
Summary: Children are vulnerable to the same potentially harmful side affects of cancer treatments as are adults, meaning that while chemo and radiation treatments are sometimes necessary to save their lives, these powerful treatments also have the capacity to leave them infertile. Ovarian tissue freezing is one of the most promising ways to help children preserve fertility through these treatments.
