Fertility preservation options for cancer patients 🔎

In this video Dr Chris Venter, a Reproductive Medicine Specialist at Vitalab Fertility Clinic in Sandton discusses the fertility preservation options available for cancer patients and also prior to starting cancer treatment. 

Female and Male patients diagnosed with cancer should consider preserving fertility before starting cancer treatment
Fertility preservation options for women:
Egg Freezing should be considered for single woman who want to preserve fertility prior to cancer treatment. 
Embryo cryopreservation is another option for women in committed relationships or married.

Male preservation options are different from woman. Males can look at the sperm cryopreservation. This treatment can be done after receiving 2 or 3 straws of ejaculated sperm. 
The time for the fertility treatments is between 12 and 14 days after cancer diagnoses
