Overview:
Aster CMI Hospital's IVF department is a pioneering force in reproductive health, particularly for individuals navigating cancer treatment. Recognizing the unique fertility challenges posed by cancer therapies, our Oncofertility program blends cutting-edge techniques with compassion. We offer a comprehensive suite of services, ensuring a holistic approach to fertility preservation for cancer patients.
Specialized IVF Protocols for Cancer Patients:
Understanding the distinctive needs of cancer patients, our IVF specialists employ tailored protocols that seamlessly integrate with ongoing cancer treatments. These protocols aim to optimize fertility preservation while maintaining the effectiveness of cancer therapies. Personalized plans are crafted in collaboration with oncologists, ensuring a cohesive approach that prioritizes both aspects of care.
Embryo Cryopreservation:
For individuals undergoing cancer treatment, Aster CMI Hospital employs state-of-the-art techniques in embryo cryopreservation. This involves the freezing of embryos created through in vitro fertilization, providing a viable option for future pregnancies post-cancer treatment.
Sperm Banking:
Male cancer patients facing potential impacts on fertility can benefit from our sperm banking services. Sperm banking involves the collection, freezing, and storage of sperm for future use. This proactive approach empowers individuals to preserve their reproductive capabilities, offering the possibility of biological fatherhood even after cancer treatments.
Oocyte Cryopreservation:
Aster CMI Hospital recognizes the importance of fertility preservation for female cancer patients. Oocyte cryopreservation, or egg freezing, is a breakthrough method where eggs are extracted, frozen, and stored. This technique provides women the option to pursue motherhood at their own pace, post-cancer treatment.
Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation:
Designed for women at risk of losing ovarian function due to cancer treatments, this groundbreaking technique involves surgically removing a small piece of ovarian tissue, freezing, and storing it for future use. Post-cancer treatment, the preserved tissue can be re-implanted, potentially restoring ovarian function and fertility.
Fertility Sparing Surgeries:
Recommended in cases where cancer affects reproductive organs, fertility-sparing surgeries aim to remove cancer while preserving the functionality of the reproductive system. Our experienced surgical team ensures detailed pre-operative consultations and post-operative support, prioritizing individualized care.
Conclusion:
Aster CMI Hospital's commitment to advancing IVF care is exemplified through our specialized Oncofertility program. By combining expertise with empathy, we empower cancer patients to take control of their reproductive future. From personalized IVF protocols to a comprehensive suite of services, our approach ensures that individuals facing the challenges of cancer treatment can still embrace the joys of parenthood.
